Summary
AU: When Carla Connor decides she’s done with love—she means it.
If five failed marriages have taught her anything, it’s that she’s done with being the one who always gets hurt.
So when she sets out to write an article so big, it’s sure to feature on the cover of her very own Underworld Magazine, she has a plan: find an unsuspecting participant, sabotage the relationship, and win the cover story. No feelings, no risk, no heartbreak.
Simple, right?
But what if the unsuspecting participant has a game of her own?
What starts as a carefully orchestrated plan, quickly becomes something far more complicated. And the longer the ‘game’ goes on, the harder it becomes to tell what’s real and what’s supposed to be fake.
Because for Carla, falling in love was never supposed to be part of her plan.

She paused, her gaze searching Carla's dark eyes with a depth of intensity that made Carla’s breath hitch. "But you, Ryan, Betsy, and now Connie... you all are my life.

When two very different worlds collide, with a little outside help, will these two woman finally give in and let themselves fall in love. -
What happens on international duty, stays on international duty. by Gloryandhonour

Summary
Carla Connor and Lisa Swain. They’re rivals first, enemies second, and teammates only because England says they must be.
One is the composed, respected captain of Manchester United and England. The other is Manchester City’s newest signing with a talent for causing problems and pushing every single one of her buttons.
They clash constantly – on the pitch, in training, in interviews – and neither woman is willing to back down. To the world, their dislike for each other is obvious.
But international duty has a way of forcing people together.
Late nights, shared secrets, and moments no one else sees begin to crack the armour they both wear so carefully. Beneath the rivalry is something neither of them expected: understanding, vulnerability, and an attraction that refuses to stay buried.
The only problem? Falling for your enemy is dangerous enough. Falling for someone while the entire football world thinks you hate each other – might be impossible.
