Lines We Cross

Men of the Match #3

by Tyler Young

When rival players Mason Holt and Luca Moretti face off on the pitch, sparks fly—and not just from their cleats. Mason’s all discipline and precision, the golden boy of American football. Luca? He’s Europe’s smirking, tattooed wildcard with something to prove. One blistering match and an accidental hookup later, they’re entangled in something far more dangerous than attraction.

But with a media storm brewing, team loyalties pulling them apart, and a season-defining game on the horizon, keeping their relationship a secret is the only way to survive.

Except secrets don’t stay quiet forever. And love—like football—requires playing with your whole heart.

Enemies-to-lovers. Secret hookups. Full-contact heat.
This spicy, emotional sports romance turns the beautiful game into the ultimate battlefield.

About the author

Tyler Young writes emotionally intense queer romance about men under pressure—athletes, blue-collar workers, and stubborn, guarded leads who don’t fall easily but love hard once they do. His stories blend grit and tenderness, high-stakes settings, and deeply earned HEAs, with recurring themes of loyalty, identity, and choosing connection over silence. When he’s not writing, he’s probably thinking about the next collision—on the ice, on the mat, or in the garage—that will force his characters to finally tell the truth.
