I have eleven days to fix my non-existent injury. I didn’t think falling in love would be a part of the healing process.
Hemi
When my shoulder forgets how to work mid-season, I’m handed an anxiety diagnosis, told the injury is all in my head, and put on mandatory leave.
No game and no training. ‘Go on holiday, Hemi, you need rest.’
Nobody rests in rugby. Especially not during the season.
But my physio throws me a rope. Her friend has a spare room in Wānaka, New Zealand, and doesn’t mind if I crash there while I get my head on straight and fix myself before the next game. What she doesn’t tell me is that he’s the most handsome man I’ve ever seen.
Maybe a holiday is just what I need.
Liam
When my best friend offers my spare room without telling me, I’m annoyed. I need to focus and write the book I just sold, not babysit athletes.
But it’s Hemi Carter, the right-wing for our national rugby team, and my crush.
So I take him in and plan to ignore him, but having him in such close quarters is…distracting. He’s more uncertain than I expected, not the confident player he is on the field, and his sad eyes draw me in.
But why would a rugby player want a recluse like me?
The Wing is an m/m forced proximity romance, featuring an anxiety-riddled rugby player, and a reclusive writer set in Wānaka, New Zealand.
Genre: Romance
