Tackled by My Rival's Love

The Story

Seth, the NFL draft’s hottest prospect, hides a starving heart behind a flawless smile aimed at an unsatisfiable father. His fragile world shatters when Matthew, the savage Mad Dog linebacker who has hounded him on every field, transfers to his team and moves into his dorm room. Their constant brawls ignite into sparks, and their sharp taunts dissolve into intimate touches until Seth falls hard for his rival. Yet his reality collapses when he spots Ethan’s birthday, October seventeenth, engraved on Matthew’s worn necklace. He also notices Ethan’s beloved snake inked on Matthew’s neck. Seth is left reeling from the sudden revelation that he might never have been more than a stand-in for the man who truly owns Matthew’s heart.
