Blurb

Professional basketball player Bri Early needs a physical therapist after an injury, and he’s heard that Obie is the best. Bri takes an immediate liking to the out-and-proud man with the magic touch, and even though Bri isn’t openly gay himself, he’d never let anything stand in the way of something he wants.

Obie can’t deny that the sexy athlete presses all his buttons, but he’s a professional and has no intention of getting involved with a client. While they’re working together, it’s hands off, no matter how great the temptation.

But being a pro athlete isn’t easy. Bri has enemies, and one of them is making his life hell. When his house is set ablaze, Bri can no longer pretend the threatening messages he’s receiving are jokes. He needs a safe place to stay, and Obie can’t turn his back. But the two of them in the same house is a recipe for combustion that could burn them both….

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Rebound is a fantastic sports romance by Andrew Grey. A closeted basketball player falling for his physical therapist, hell yes, sign me up!

I love how determined Bri is from the start, wanting to force his recovery from an injury to get back into the game quickly. This is so damn realistic, and wonderfully written.


Bri's a closeted basketball player who ends up befriending his physical therapist, Obie. Their friendship develops naturally and is seamless, which I adore. And the attraction is instant.

I love and adore these men, especially the way they are with one another. Everything develops naturally and at a great pace.

One of my favorite parts is the name factor. Both Bri and Witt have funny/embarrassing names. But it's the way that it's used for more than just laughs that I enjoy and appreciate.

Adding to the tale, Bri has a stalker who's threatening him and the threats keep escalating.

Rebound's an amazing story of an athlete living only half a life, hiding who he is for years. Every decision he makes has been to hide who he is and what he wants. Andrew Grey does a terrific job of exploring the journey of learning to live an authentic life. And, omg, the last line of the book if superb!
