Author: Zarah Detand

Zarah Detand writes contemporary romance with British settings, sharp dialogue, and patient emotional development. Pull Me Under centers on Premier League footballer Ben Jimmer, whose public crisis leads to a staged relationship with music student Henry Brown. The arrangement gradually becomes a friendship and then something neither man can dismiss as publicity. Detand's own description places the novel within sports romance and the fake-dating tradition, while its football culture and media scrutiny give those conventions a specifically English frame. Her wider work often returns to famous figures, inconvenient feelings, and contrasting personalities, including loosely connected stories set around professional football and modern royalty.
