One wrong card. Six Saturdays. Zero chance of keeping feelings out of play.

Sydney Martinez knows how to take the blame-especially when it protects someone younger. So when a referee mistakes her for the teammate who kicked the ball away, Sydney lets the yellow card stand. Eleven seconds later, her temper earns a second one, and Northwood's senior soccer star is sent off.

The unedited video proves Sydney didn't commit the first offense. It also places Claire Kim-injured teammate, youth referee, and the most relentlessly precise person Sydney knows-between the whole truth and the girl determined to hide it.

The fallout sends Sydney to six Saturdays of restorative service at a youth soccer league, where Claire is already a referee mentor. Sydney runs on instinct, momentum, and jokes. Claire trusts rules, evidence, and careful distance. They should be impossible together. Instead, arguments become banter, banter becomes trust, and trust becomes something neither girl can explain away.

But incomplete truths have consequences. When Sydney's eligibility, Claire's integrity, and Northwood's postseason are all threatened, they must decide whether loving someone means protecting her from the truth-or standing beside her while she faces it.

Yellow Cards & Mixed Signals is a sharp, heartfelt YA sapphic sports romantic comedy about accountability, first love, and learning when to step in-and when to let someone choose for herself.
