In the high-stakes world of women’s professional soccer, chemistry can make or break a team. And for Ava Beckett, stoic team captain and relentless perfectionist, chemistry is the one thing the new Phoenix Blaze roster sorely lacks—especially after a wave of off-season changes left her leading a team that feels more fractured than fearless.

Enter Kennedy Blake: international star, media darling, and the last person Ava wants shadowing her spotlight. Kennedy’s arrival in Phoenix comes with headlines, expectations, and a thousand-watt smile that hides more than it reveals. On the field, she’s effortless. Off the field, she’s a complication Ava didn’t plan for.

Thrown together in drills, locker rooms, and late-night hotel stays, Ava and Kennedy must navigate the push-and-pull of competition, trust, and the kind of connection that could either ignite everything or leave it in ashes.

With the season ticking down and the pressure mounting, will they find a way to lead together, or will everything they’ve worked for go up in flames?

Blazing Point is a slow-burn sapphic sports romance full of tension, tenderness, and the courage it takes to let someone in. For fans of found family, late-night training sessions, and love that’s earned, inch by inch, breath by breath.
