London Calling

Addison Scott is done playing by anyone else’s rules—especially a man’s. After finally breaking free from her controlling boyfriend, a manipulative sports journalist who always made her feel small, she trades New York City chaos for a fresh start in North London. With her newly launched PR firm and a strict no-strings-attached approach to work and love, Addison’s latest assignment—revamping the image of rising soccer club Rockford FC—should be just another job. One year, in and out. Easy.

Then she meets Oliver Bradshaw. The team’s captain is private, guarded, and resistant to her every move. Despite their clash, the chemistry between them is undeniable. A secret, season-long fling feels safe enough—until Oliver begins to break through Addison’s carefully constructed walls. In him, she sees a man shaped by grief and loyalty, and the connection they swore wouldn’t mean anything starts to feel like everything.

But as the team barrels toward glory, the past comes crashing back. Addison’s ex, Matt, is assigned to cover the team’s journey for a documentary, forcing her to confront the man who once broke her spirit—and the pain she thought she’d left behind.

With everything on the line, Addison must decide: keep running, or finally stay and fight for something real. Because sometimes, love doesn’t follow the rules. And sometimes, London calls you home.
