Overview

Rocky Swoops has a secret and only by leaving it all on the field can he become the football player and man he was always meant to be, in this contemporary romance by the author of Down by Contact.

Rocky Swoops has been in hiding since he was released from his contract with the New Jersey Predators. He's dedicated his entire life to becoming a professional football player, but now he's a free agent without prospects. He knows his reckless and harmful reaction to the sudden flood of out-and-proud football players is to blame. As someone who felt forced to erase his sexuality at a young age, the idea of acceptance is impossible to fathom...

In an effort to clean up his public image, Rocky attends an LGBT benefit in the Hamptons. When he meets handsome mechanic, Case Bianchi, at the party, he can't hide his attraction. Case doesn't recognize him as an infamous athlete, and ends up drawing Rocky into a passionate kiss that he's too stunned to resist. Rocky is left on the beach with his heart pounding and head spinning. Unfortunately, Case was only interested in a distraction. But with a connection this intense, there has to be more to the story or it will be Rocky's biggest loss to date.
