Two rival quarterbacks. One owned by a monster and a wink. LET THE GAY FOOTBALL SEX OPERA BEGIN. Meet Piper Ashton. Football consumed Piper. Every snap, every route, every victory was a masterclass in control. Until Noah Reyes. Piper’s rival quarterback, who smiled like sin and threw like a freight train Noah was the one player who could make Piper’s perfect world crack wide open with nothing but a wink across the line of scrimmage. An obsession, so all-consuming, that two of the league’s most watched men began making the kind of mess that could end careers, reputations and their lives. The truth is, Piper’s life was never really his to begin with. It belongs to a powerful billionaire who has spent years pulling every string in his life, and that man doesn’t share. One championship. One forbidden, toxic obsession. One secret that could burn the entire league to the ground. But first… a WARNING. Hard Count is an unapologetically dark MM romance. It contains explicit sexual content, psychological abuse, coercive control, alcoholism, homophobia, eating disorders, trauma, gun violence, corse language, and other disturbing themes. If you’re looking for a lighthearted sports romance, this isn’t it.
