    Summary

    Sam doesn’t have any particular reason to feel lonely today. For him, the twenty-fifth of December is usually just another day. Nevertheless he does. He decides to take advantage of an empty Nelson Road to get some practice in.

    He doesn't expect Jamie Tartt to be there, and he certainly doesn't expect them to form a Christmas Truce of sorts.

    Summary

    At 21, Jamie writes his first book, a romance novel about an up and coming footballer who embodies everything Jamie isn’t: kind, caring, soft. Published under a pseudonym, it unexpectedly takes off, followed by a sequel in the same vein.

    But his third book is different. This time, Jamie pours onto the page what he can’t say aloud: his father’s abuse, his sexuality, the suffocating weight of expectation. Only when he begins to find his place back at Richmond does he start to feel hope again, both for his book and his future.

    Meanwhile, Roy, thanks to his yoga mums, becomes hooked on a series of novels by an anonymous author. He never expects one of them to put words to feelings he’s buried for years.

    Or: An AU where Jamie Tartt is a successful author alongside his football career.
