Synopsis

He was paid to break Julian Rosemont's heart. He wasn't supposed to want to keep it.

Mason Caldwell has ninety days before the bank takes the only home he's ever had. So when a stranger in a suit worth more than Mason's truck offers him a fortune to play a sport he's never touched, for a team he's never heard of, Mason doesn't ask questions.

He should have asked questions.

Julian Rosemont is everything Mason isn't: old money, unbeaten, born into a polo dynasty with a trophy case older than most countries. He's also Mason's assignment. Get close. Get inside his head. Win.

Nobody tells Mason why it has to be Julian specifically. Nobody tells Julian there's a reason at all.

What starts as a job turns into something neither of them planned for: stolen nights in hotel rooms that don't officially exist, a rivalry that burns hotter every time their horses collide, and a captain who's spent his whole life performing perfection finally letting someone see him crack. Mason was supposed to stay untouchable. Julian was supposed to stay unknowable. Somewhere in the space between chukkers and secrets, they both stopped following the rules.

But the deal that saved Mason's ranch has strings attached that go back further than either of them knows, and when the truth finally surfaces, it won't just end the season.

It might end them.

Perfect for readers who love:

• Secretly-hired-to-target-him romance
• Fish-out-of-water meets old-money dynasty
• Enemies-to-lovers with a slow, brutal burn
• A morally gray puppet master with his own tragic wreckage
• Found family in a locker room full of people hiding the same thing

Mason came to Windward Fields to save a ranch. He didn't come here to fall in love with the one man he was hired to destroy. Too late.

Line of the Ball is Book One of the Windward Cup Dynasty, an M/M and F/F sports romance trilogy. Queer love, every genre, always a happy ending - but you'll have to earn this one.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

My work spans political thriller, gothic horror, and small-town crime, different worlds, same obsession with what people do when no one's watching.

Known for tightly controlled prose and morally complex characters, my work often unfolds at the intersection of politics, technology, and personal consequence, places where decisions are made long before they are visible.

I publish under a pen name by design, allowing the work to stand apart from the author and speak on its own terms. The novels favor precision over spectacle, tension over exposition, and reward readers who pay attention to what is left unsaid.

When not writing, I like to remain deliberately out of view writing my next novel.
