Wanting him is the real scandal.
Chris Green was an Olympic Golden Boy, the pride of his hometown-until one mistake turned him into a name people won't say out loud. With his athletics career in ruins, he's already at rock bottom.
Then a masked man online makes him want something even more impossible than redemption.
Isaiah Owens is a dedicated academic who lives on his own terms. Camming pays the bills, and working at his uncle's sports agency is just a means to an end. Antagonising the agency's entitled clients, especially the disgraced athlete he can't stand is simply a bonus.
Everything is neatly compartmentalised, until Isaiah breaks his one rule and starts falling for a man he's never met. A man who, despite the mask, sees the parts of him he's spent a lifetime hiding.
When the truth is revealed, neither of them will get out unscathed.
