   Summary

   Football is the beautiful game, but it can be anything but off the pitch. Lily Evans is the enigmatic winger and star player for The Lionesses, England's Women's Team, trying to change public perception of herself to bring home glory. James Potter is the new Lioness reporter for The Athletic, eager to make a name for himself in a place that doesn't trust him while dealing with his own personal demons.
