Social media is the devil.
Who would have ever guessed that a relaxing night out with friends would turn into such a media circus when a small mob of haters came after us with a baseball bat? Some clever video editing was enough to force me and my biggest rival, Jase Maxwell, into suspension. And lucky me, I’m now stuck doing community service with the raging homophobe so we can “rehabilitate our images.”
He’s cocky, grumpy, and sarcastic, with an air of arrogance that chokes me like bad cologne every time he flies into my airspace. But he’s also gorgeous and built like a Greek god, so it isn’t long before the air that choked me now makes my heart thrash and my blood burn.
Going for the guy who’s completely off-limits is my MO. And I do love a challenge.
Except breaking him down and making him admit what’s happening between us is real is one that Jase will never accept.
Jase
Lucas just had to be at the bar that night. And he just had to knock into me while I was incognito, throwing around all kinds of crazy innuendoes like he had some kind of Spidey sense about the secret I was hiding from the world.
And of course, he had to tail me out of the bar when those ignorant jerkoffs took off after us with a Louisville Slugger. I told him to run, gave him every out to clear him from what was about to happen. But he stayed because he’s Mr. Peppy and Bright-Eyed Team Player.
I didn’t count on the cops showing up…or him trying to hide us by pressing his lips against mine in the darkness…or me loving the barrage of sensations that rippled through me at the unexpected assault.
But what he’ll never know is why I’ll never, ever let him near my lips again…why I could lose everything if he figures out my true obsession beyond football is him.
Pump Fake is book two of the Red Zone Series. It’s an entirely standalone contemporary slow burn, coming out MM sports romance that has high heat, forbidden love, and a villain to keep things really interesting.
