OverviewTwenty years in the closet. Three years of silence. One last chance to get it right.Lincoln I spent my entire NAFL career hiding who I was. Perfect stats. Perfect family. Perfect lie. Now I'm retired, divorced, and finally done pretending - until Nixon Cross calls and asks me to talk to a closeted player who's burning himself out the same way I did. Which means being back in Wilmington. Back in Nixon's world. Back in the orbit of the only man who's known my secret since the night I tried to kiss him after one too many beers. Three years ago, he told me how he felt. I said I wasn't ready. He stopped calling and never looked back. Now I'm ready. And he won't let me close enough to prove it. Nixon I don't do feelings. I don't do complicated. And I sure as hell don't do Lincoln Sims. Not again. He's a retired football legend with a son headed for the draft and a reality TV crew crawling all over the team. Letting him back in is the worst idea I've ever entertained - and I've been entertaining it for three years. He sits too close. Remembers too much. Looks at me like I'm the only honest thing in his life. I can't be that for him. Except I already was, once, and walking away almost broke me. Some plays, you only get one shot. We already had our false start. False Start is a friends-to-lovers MM football romance and Book 2 in the Tackled by Love series. Can be read as a standalone.
