This closeted ex-football star just met his match. Liam Fox was the next Aussie footy star before his dream shattered along with his knee. More than a decade later, he's a lifeguard wishing fans would stop recognizing him so he can fade into the background where he’s safe.



Liam's alone with his secrets. He's never told his conservative family or a single friend he's gay. After being shamed for his need to surrender years ago by the first and only man he trusted, he's terrified to act on his desires.



Enter a trainee half his size with the biggest heart.


Cody Grant loves a challenge. Though he's young, he's out and proud and fearless. He's still learning to rescue swimmers from dangerous rip currents, but he knows he can take charge and give Liam the release, affection, and acceptance he desperately craves.



Can Cody convince Liam to find the courage to love and live out loud?
