    Summary

    “The first time I saw you," Michaela says, "I thought you were the strong-minded sister of my cousin’s new wife.” She smiles then, small and sad. “Somehow you ended up more than that. You ended up being you.”

    “You say that like it is something special,” Francesca says, voice small.

    Michaela holds her gaze. “It is to me.”

    or, 5 times Michaela leaves Francesca + 1 time she comes back (aka scenes from scotland + a s5 reunion)

    Summary

    Five years.

    Twenty matches.

    One hotel, different floors and the kind of tension that has been mislabeled competitive awareness for far too long. Francesca and Michaela are the greatest rivalry in women's tennis — and, it turns out, each other's most inconvenient problem.

    Summary

    Michaela, whilst grieving and overwhelmed with the feelings blossoming in her chest for her cousin's widow, does the only thing she can think to do when asked so sweetly to stay, she flees.

    But now, after two years of running, she has returned to London, determined to make amends with the woman she has managed to convince herself she cannot fall in love with, under any circumstances.

    Yet her chosen path is not an easy one, for Francesca Stirling, now seething with rage, grief, and a furious current of feelings she neither understands nor can explain, is just as determined to discover the very reason for Michaela's flight in the first place, a reason Michaela is intent on keeping to herself.

    Summary

    Somewhere in Rome, or Paris, or a couple months from now on the grass at Wimbledon, Michaela will be across the net again. That much is inevitable.

    Francesca drives another serve down the T, watching it land clean on the line.

    Fine, then. She’ll be ready.

    It’s 1997, and Francesca Bridgerton and Michaela Stirling are at the height of not only their tennis careers, but also their long-standing and highly commentated-on feud.
