Break Me Open: Some cracks never heal. Some beg to be shattered. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798285290605)

In a game built on contact, it's the connection that ruins them.

Rookie winger Jesse Morgan grew up idolizing Alec Reid-the East Coast Riptide's iron-willed captain known for brutal tackles, locker room silence, and never letting anyone close. Now they're teammates. And Jesse? He's already lost the war with his own heart.

Alec has spent his career keeping control-of his body, his game, his secrets. Letting anyone in has never been an option. But Jesse makes it harder with every reckless play, every crooked grin, every "accidental" brush of skin in the locker room. He's loud. He's relentless. He sees through Alec like no one ever has.

The field isn't safe. The locker room isn't silent. And the team? They're starting to notice.

When a single kiss breaks the rules and something much deeper breaks through the silence, Alec and Jesse are forced to choose: play it safe-or finally play for keeps.

This isn't just a love story.
It's a bruising, breathless, full-contact fall.
