CHAPTER ONE

Austin James Phillips flipped through a stack of contracts on his desk.

It was the third stack he had been through that day.

As the VP and part owner of a very successful tech company, he had to look over more legalese than he cared to. Of course, back when he was in the NFL, his agent dealt with that sort of stuff.

Ah yes... Those were the glory days.

Austin had consistently been a sensation on the football field and then he managed to retire his career at precisely the right time, on a golden arc, much to the envy of many. He was one of the great ones and in the league of America’s most adored and talked-about players in the NFL.

Austin Phillips... A sensation on and off the field!

Twelve years... That’s how long his pro football career lasted and it had been a stellar run. It was a dream and he lived every minute of it with pride.

Winning games...

Playing ball with his buddies and getting paid for it...

Doing it for the fans...

Giving young and upcoming talent something to aspire to...

What a magical time it had been.

A sizzling profile throughout his entire career earned Austin plenty of lucrative offers, from multi-million dollar contracts to play ball to sponsorship deals to investments in private start-ups... There had always been generous baskets of cherries to pick form. Of course, Austin’s masculine charm and good looks played a pivotal role in his ascent towards stardom. He had that special look... The very look that created celebrities and superstars and the look that was responsible for all the buzz and magazine covers. Austin had a lethal combination: male beauty and athletic brilliance.

Retiring had done nothing to dull the spotlight. Austin still had the warmth of all his former glory shinning down on him. He was still a household name. Upcoming football jocks looked up to him. Coaches talked about him. Sportscasters constantly referred to his skill and stellar run in the NFL... Sure, the sponsorship deals eventually did dry up but Austin was fine with that. He had been smart with his millions and invested them wisely so that his fortune would continue to grow once he retired from football. And it was a good thing because one of his investments paid off handsomely. He put some money into a tech start-up. It was risky at the time, and purely speculative, but his hunch had paid off. The company went on to become immensely profitable. Once he was ready to retire, he took a VP position with the company.

Life had been very good to Austin, but it had not always been that way. He had struggled to make his way up to the top, against all odds. When he was growing up, he had more people vying against him than he had supporters. Being carted from one foster home to another had proven to be a huge barrier to success, but Austin overcame that obstacle and all the other challenges that surfaced along the way. That’s what made him so good on the field. He had the fight in him. He had always been ambitious and determined, right from the get go.

Austin James Phillips had been destined for the NFL and his tenacious disposition ensured that he got there.

Austin glanced at his watch and wondered if he should take off early.

Physical challenges he could do, but contracts were another story. There was only so much he could digest in a single day. When his secretary Julie strolled into his office, he was more than happy to toss the contracts aside as she was far more interesting to focus on.

“Sir, operations just emailed this document over for your review.”

She bent over, letting her bosom show, and then offered up a friendly smile. A sexy smile was more like it.

Austin did not pay much attention to Julie’s flirting. Although he was quite fond of her, he had other interests.

“Thanks,” Austin said. He quickly scanned over the document and then looked back up at Julie. “Where’s the rest?”

A blank look settled onto Julie’s face.

“Oh, umm... Well sir, that’s all I got in the email.”

Austin shook his head.

“Send Marc up here.”

“Yes, sir...”

“Hold on.”

Austin caught her before she took off. He pulled out a yellow post-it and scribbled down a note for Marc. Julie took the opportunity to check out Austin when he was preparing the note. She did that whenever she got the chance. Austin drove her wild with excitement. After all, he was a genuine NFL football player and a celebrity... Oh how she loved the idea of being with a famous jock. Thanks to the Harlequin Romance novels she read, her jock fantasies were alive and well.

Austin thrust the document back towards her once he was done, pulling her out of her dozy day dream.

“Oh, yes... I will take care of this for you, sir... Right away.”

Sir... Julie absolutely hated calling him that. She much rather preferred to call him by his first name, the way everyone else did. That would certainly be a step in the right direction!

Austin watched Julie make her way out of his office and he quietly chuckled to himself. He knew all about her little crush... She was a sweet girl, and he was genuinely fond of her, but he had reached a turning point in his life. He was not looking to shack up with a woman, no matter how tempting he found Julie. He much rather preferred to be free so that he could play. And right now, all he wanted to do was play with men.

Ah yes...

He had stumbled upon a whole new world. He began messing around with men shortly after he retired from football. He was single and quite bored of the jock and hot chick routine by that point so he tried something different. Once he tried man sex, he never looked back. That is when Austin discovered that he was a bisexual man and he was damn proud of his discovery! His only regret was that he had not found out sooner. Now that he knew, he did not want to waste a single minute sitting on the sidelines. There were plenty of men to explore! Despite all the delicious pickings around him, however, there was only one man that Austin was most curious about.

That man was Marc – the sexy stud down in operations.

Twenty minutes later, Julie buzzed through the intercom.

“Sir, Marc from operations is here to see you.”

“Great, send him in.”

As soon as Austin clicked off the intercom, he fussed with his tie and suit jacket and then grabbed a piece of paper to look at. Looking busy... That was a good approach.
