Offside Hearts: Crossing the line
“Amidst a school rivalry neither of them chose, Ronnie and Chloe found each other. They didn't begin as the couple everyone would come to root for but they began in secrecy, kept apart by two families with very different standards. What started to blossom was nearly destroyed when Chloe begins uncovering the truth behind her mother's long-forgotten death, with every clue leading back to Ronnie's powerful family. At the same time, Ronnie struggles to keep his own dangerous secret hidden, chasing the freedom his family's legacy has always denied him. He was already living a double life with one built on the guilt of Claire Hayes' death, a wound Ethan Carter never let him heal from. Together, pushed forward by an anonymous truth teller neither of them can identify, they uncover secrets that pull them further apart with every revelation. Ronnie watched the one thing he had sacrificed everything for, his football scholarship, his one shot outside his family's shadow, slips through his fingers. Can love survive when everything else has already been lost?”
