When Eric is unable to help his friend recover, he has to put his feelings aside for a second time. He never imagined the man who could help would be the glue that bound them together.
Drew Jackson had it all: a family who loves him, a tight circle of friends, and he’s a rising star with the Milwaukee Mavericks. Then, it all begins to unravel when the man he’s loved since they were kids falls for Drew’s teammate.
He makes a critical mistake in the playoffs he’s not sure he’ll be able to recover from.
And then, his world really crashes around him…
Eric Sapp may no longer play for the Mavericks, but he’s still one of the guys. After stopping a brutal attack, Eric is forced to face the feelings that have been growing for his roommate, Drew. That’d be much easier if Drew wasn’t hell-bent on pushing everyone away as he recovers.
Neither of them were counting on Bryce Shaw. He and Drew enjoyed the one night they spent together, but knew it was unlikely they’d be anything more since they lived in different parts of the country. When Bryce is relocated to help a failing LGBT homeless outreach, he wants to explore something more with the Mavericks’ short stop.
As much as Eric wishes he could be the one to help his friend, he knows Bryce holds the key to Drew’s recovery. Will pushing the two back together be the biggest mistake of his life or will they all learn there is strength in numbers?
Triple Play is the third book in the Homeruns Series, previously published under the pen name Sloan Johnson.
Triple Play is the third book in Quinn Ward's Homeruns series. It was previously released under the pen name Sloan Johnson, and is now re-released with some added content.
I first read this book years ago and it remains one of my favorites to this day. Baseball. Hurt/Comfort. Menage. It's amazing!
In this book, we get Drew's story. And dear god, how I already love Drew from the first two books. Unfortunately for him, his story starts with him as the victim of a hate crime. Tears. Omg. Tears. Don't hurt Drew!
Luckily Eric is there to stop the attack and get him help. And Bryce is in town temporarily, with his timing perfect to help Drew as well.
What follows is an emotional journey towards healing and love. Drew, Bryce, and Eric. I love everything about this story and these men. I love the way both men connect with Drew. And I love the way both men are interested in Drew.
And the sex is hot! Their chemistry is off the charts!
It's tough reading about Drew's attack and all the flashbacks for him and Eric. There are nightmares and a slew of insecurities. It takes time to recover mentally as well as physically. But having these two men by his side get him there in the long run.
Their journey towards being a triad is complex and wonderful. Eric plays for a team out of town and is reconsidering his future. He's near the end of his game, while Drew is at the beginning. And of course, Bryce is only in town for a temporary work assignment. They have no set ideas or easy path towards ending up together.
Triple Play is a fabulous romance. Quinn Ward has once again left me delighted with a great romance. Adding to the fun is the great group of teammates and friends. This is a series with the past characters always around. It's fabulous as they all start to feel like family. And I am so excited to re-read these books yet again.
