Scoring the Player: Chasing Rings: MM Basketball Romance Book 2

About this book

Pro basketball player Salem “The Silencer” Jones is back on the court and ready to dominate, but his biggest challenge isn't the competition—it’s his long-time, secret crush, Arnaz Cade. With Arnaz now playing in the same league as an openly gay man, Salem decides it is time to stop playing defense and finally shoot his shot, even if it means doing so on a nationally televised press conference. Arnaz, however, is playing a different game. Since coming out, he has been thrust into the spotlight, and his only goal is to chase championship rings while keeping his personal life strictly off-limits. He is determined to avoid anything more than a casual encounter, but Salem’s persistent, genuine pursuit makes it increasingly difficult to keep his walls up. Featuring the enticing tropes of rivals-to-lovers and mutual pining, this MM sports romance is a slow-unraveling journey of emotional vulnerability. As Salem breaks through Arnaz’s defenses, the two must navigate the pressures of fame, past insecurities, and their undeniable chemistry. Will Arnaz finally let his guard down and realize he is worthy of being someone’s first choice, or will the heat of the game push them apart?
