Blurb

He knows his place on the pitch, but life is a whole other game.

All his life, Liam Donnelly looked and wondered. Could he? Would he? And then, finally, he did. But when he sampled a taste of that forbidden fruit, his whole world came crashing down, his position with Dublin Rugby right along with it. When the chance to ply his trade in Edinburgh comes along, Liam jumps at the offer, knowing it could be his best opportunity to start fresh and get back to the man he once was. But one look at Chef Lachlan MacLeod-his knowing, whisky-colored eyes, the abrasive scruff dotting his jaw, and the colorful ink lining his forearms-and Liam's wondering all over again. Can he? Will he? His heart says no, but his body says yes. 


He's conquered his own demons; can he help another man do the same?

Out and proud Chef Lachlan MacLeod has no problem with who he is, except he has a history of hooking up with bi-curious straight men. He's vowed never to go down that path again, but when Liam Donnelly shows up in his restaurant, his eyes filled with heat and secret longing, Lachlan can't help himself. He knows the closeted rugby player is a terrible idea, but the man calls to him in a way no one ever has before. What started as a safe way for Liam to explore his sexuality quickly morphs into something much deeper, and now Lachlan wants more. But can his heart reconcile what his head already knows-that loving the gorgeous, broken athlete might actually mean letting him go?

Review


I've loved each book in the Dublin Rugby series and Break down is no different. It delivers the same unexpected romance told with humor, emotion and just the right tugs on the heartstrings.  The difference - Break Down has it's own sets of issues to tackle. 

Liam wanted nothing more than to finish out his career in Dublin - but  he's aging out and the team isn't as hot to have him, add in a scandal lurking in the wings, he decides to head to Edinburgh to play for a new team and tackle some personal decisions.  Mainly Liam wants to discover who he is and what he really wants. He doen't expect to find it in a local chef - but there's something there none-the-less. 

Lachlan knows who he is and what he wants, as well as what he doesn't want - and that's to lead another confused man to the answers he's seeking. But there's some insane pull to Liam - and Lachlan feels like he understands a little about the situation - but still doesn't want to induce pain for himself. 

There's a lot to work through for these two - their feelings for each other, Liam's career and his fears regarding it, Lachlan's desire to not be a "dirty little secret", and so much more. Each part of the story adds a new dimension to their relationship and kept me rooting for them.   This story is more than a romance, it's a story of accepting who you are and finding your happiness, it's a story of facing fears in  away, and yes of course there's a total love story in the mix.
