    Summary

    First year of uni was supposed to be simple: new city, new people, fresh start.

    Instead, Carla Connor ends up in a chaotic house full of strangers, cheap wine, and too many personalities to keep track of, including one quiet, observant blonde who seems to see right through her.

    Lisa Swain didn’t come to uni to make friends. She definitely didn’t come to get involved.

    But somewhere between late-night kitchens, shared spaces, and conversations that hit a little too close to home, something starts to shift.

    Slowly. Quietly.

    And neither of them are quite ready for it.

    Summary

    Carla Connor doesn’t do careful. Lisa Swain doesn’t do reckless.

    Somewhere between a two-year-old who chooses her people fiercely, a grief that never quite loosens its grip, and a woman who feels like home far too quickly, boundaries blur and hearts hesitate.

    Summary

    The Milan Cortina Winter Olympics 2026.

    Carla Connor and Lisa Swain are two very different, very contrasting athletes. They’re from two very different backgrounds.

    Both hold medal hopes for Team GB in Italy. Front and centre of coverage, they dominate the headlines leading up to Milan Cortina.

    Working-class grit in two different forms.

    Carla, the girl from the estate turned snowboarding icon, who’d fought every inch of her life for what she’d achieved and never apologised for wanting more.

    Lisa, was the alpine specialist, discipline carved into her posture, used to carrying responsibility quietly.

    Maybe they will leave Milan with more than gold.
