Try Line Hearts

Lucas Byrne has built his life on control.

Captain of his country's professional rugby team, he thrives under pressure-relentless on the pitch, disciplined off it. He knows how to lead men into collision, how to shoulder expectation, how to keep every forbidden want locked away where it can't cost him everything he's earned. His career. His reputation. His carefully constructed future.

Elijah Kaine is a problem.

Too talented. Too open. Too easy with laughter, with touch, with the kind of attention Byrne has spent years convincing himself he doesn't need. Kaine plays like he has nothing to lose-and looks at Byrne like he already sees the truth Byrne refuses to name.

They're supposed to be teammates.

They're definitely not supposed to want each other.

What begins as friction turns into something sharper. Something electric. Glances held too long. Hands brushing in cramped spaces. Late nights where the line between discipline and desire wears dangerously thin. Byrne knows the risks-being seen, being known, being undone by the one thing he's never allowed himself to want.

But Kaine isn't asking for promises.

He's asking for honesty.

And for Byrne, that might be the most dangerous thing of all.

Set against the brutal intensity of professional rugby, this is an emotionally charged MM sports romance about restraint, truth, and the terrifying freedom of choosing more-on the pitch, and in the dark, when no one else is watching.

Sometimes the hardest opponent isn't across the line.

It's the future you're finally brave enough to imagine.
