After the WPS folded in early 2012, Fraine signed with Swedish club Mallbackens IF and helped the team get promoted to the Damallsvenskan for the 2013 season. During her debut season with the club in the second-division league Söderettan, Fraine made 23 appearances (all starts)[7] and helped the club finish first in the league with a 12–1–7 record.[8] After defeating Sirius in the promotions playoffs, Mallbackens was promoted to top-division league, Damallsvenskan. During the 2013 season, Fraine made 22 appearances for the club. They finished in 11th place with a 3–12–7 record.[9]

Fraine signed with Damallsvenskan club Linköping FC for the 2014 season and made 19 appearances for the club for total of 1687 minutes. They finished in fourth place during the regular season with 11–4–5 record.[10] She returned to Linköping for the 2015 season and helped the team finish in fourth place with a 14–6–2 record.[11]

In December 2015, it was announced that Fraine had signed with Vittsjö GIK for the 2016 season.[12] She moved to Norwegian Toppserien team Avaldsnes IL for 2017, before returning to the Damallsvenskan with Växjö DFF a year later.[13]
