Overview

In the NFL, big risks can lead to big rewards - or utter ruin. For pro football player and star quarterback Jackson Stone, the biggest risk that he’d ever taken was hooking up with his very male best friend and lifelong crush, Butch Henderson. Well, it was right up until Butch started romancing him, and he started giving into temptation. Now, that's his biggest risk, as well as his biggest, most dangerous secret. If word of it ever got out, it would ruin him. Losing Butch now would break him. Once, Butch Henderson had assumed that a holiday fling would be enough to get Jax Stone out of his system. Instead, Butch can't get enough of him or the chemistry sizzling between them! He doesn't regret that his first time, gay for you hook up with his best friend has turned into something more, but he worries that Jax isn't interested in giving him – in giving them – a real chance at a real romantic relationship. And with quarantine, lockdown, and Jax’s career in the NFL looming over their new romance, he might not be able to persuade Jax otherwise. Lockdowns have killed steadier romances than theirs. With their lifelong friendship on the line, as well as their new romance, can Jax and Butch turn a holiday hook up into a real best friends to lovers romance? Will their biggest risk be their best reward... or the biggest regret of their lives?
