Pull Me Under

A love story to sweep you off your cleats! For five years, Ben Jimmer has hidden behind the headlines. Star midfielder for Manchester United, he's lived the dream-fame, fortune, and the constant pressure of staying on top. But one drunken night in a gay club threatens to send his carefully constructed life crashing down. His agent's solution? A fake boyfriend, media spin, and damage control at its finest. But Henry, the supposed "fake" boyfriend, is too real: too kind, too attractive, and too good at making Ben question why he's been hiding all these years. Between fake dating, a grumpy-sunshine dynamic, and the unexpected pull of real feelings, Pull Me Under is a witty, heart-pounding MM soccer romance about a footballer who's spent his life running from himself-and the one guy who makes him want to stop. ____________ From verified Amazon reviews: "ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVES.

His manager convinces him that if you have to be the first openly gay footballer at the prime of your career, there's nothing wrong with enlisting a little help in the form of a long-term, committed and very fake boyfriend. Enter Henry Brown, university student, who's all too happy to lend Ben a hand. Between public appearances and the media spotlight, a careful friendship starts to bloom. But when the lines inevitably start to blur, the question is: are they ready for the real thing?
