Noah Chen has spent his whole life being watched.
Coach's son. That's the label that follows him through every tunnel, every team meeting, every session where he has to be twice as good to be taken half as seriously. He's learned to give nothing away. No weakness. No wants. Especially not the kind that could end his career and detonate his father's.
Then Elias Andersen signs from Denmark — all quiet precision and unhurried calm, a man who reads a match the way other people read a sentence. Elias doesn't watch Noah the way everyone else does. He sees him. And he isn't looking away.
What starts in the film room after everyone's gone home is supposed to stay there. A secret. A thing that lives only in the dark, in the minutes nobody schedules. But the more time Noah spends with the one person who wants nothing from him, the harder it gets to keep pretending he's fine on his own — and the harder it gets to hide from the man whose opinion has shaped his entire life, standing on the touchline, watching everything.
Some things can't survive the light. Noah is about to find out if this one can.
Pitch Dark is a slow-burn, forbidden MM soccer romance: a coach's-son hero with too much to lose, a steady Danish love interest who refuses to look away, and the kind of found family that won't let you disappear. Book 3 in the Open Goal series — a complete story with a guaranteed happily-ever-after, readable on its own. No cheating, no cliffhanger.
Genre: Romance
