The Sixth Man Lie: A Positive Test, an Impossible Timestamp, and the Man He Never Stopped Wanting (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798190456271)

His body was on national television. His drug test says it was in another state. Micah Ross has just delivered the winning shot when a sealed notice detonates his career: a prohibited substance has been found under his athlete code. The laboratory records are clean. The samples are real. The chain of custody is intact. There is only one problem. At the exact time the documents place Micah inside an Atlanta collection clinic, millions of viewers were watching him play the fourth quarter in Baltimore. To prove what happened without destroying the innocent people trapped inside the same system, Micah turns to Tomas Vale-the union investigator whose questions once ended their marriage and whose absence never stopped feeling like unfinished business. As sponsors close ranks and the league protects its procedures, Micah and Tomas uncover a structure capable of attaching an honest sample to the wrong human being while every official record remains technically perfect. Clearing Micah's name will require more than exposing a lie. It will force both men to decide whether truth can repair the trust they broke-and whether a second chance can survive the evidence. The Sixth Man Lie is a high-heat gay sports romantic suspense novel featuring former husbands, professional basketball, an impossible doping case, procedural intrigue, and a complete HEA.
