Wanting him is the riskiest play of all...
Miami star quarterback Jordan Barr is the hottest man that halfback Eric "The Brick" Higgins has ever laid eyes on, and he's wanted him in his bed for years.
When a chance encounter puts the two pro football players in the same town, the same TV studio, and the same locked room, the sparks don't just fly, they burn. The chemistry between them is intense, immediate, and explosive and Eric isn't about to miss his chance to have Jordan off the field. He'll have Jordan naked in his bed--rumors of game fixing haunting both of their teams be damned.
Eric is one extraordinarily stunning man, and Jordan would love nothing more than to show Eric what it's like to be taken by someone who knows exactly what he wants, in the bedroom and out. But Jordan has bills to pay and far too many responsibilities to throw caution to the wind.
He has to resist. But it's getting hard....

As a twenty-five year old Professor of English, he drowns the shame of how he copes by losing himself in bourbon. But, drink isn’t enough to block out the echoes of the past, and it’s not enough to give his body the sexual release it craves. For that, he needs a strong hand. A very strong hand.

Falling for the too-cute-for-his-own-good English Professor is no way for Raphia to protect his heart, especially since the Professor wants to be straight… needs to be straight. When Ian’s over-the-knee secret comes to light in ways that risk not just himself but innocent others as well, it’s Raphia who takes him in hand and guides him. It’s Raphia who becomes his first time. And, it’s Raphia who shows him how to love — not just others but also himself. Not able to let the demons of his past go, Ian digs up a history of his childhood much different than the one he’d known and learns that sometimes digging up the past can have horrible consequences in the present. Sometimes, people die… Sometimes you lose the one you love. This is a 73,000 word, M/M novel with a happily ever after.
