It was just supposed to be an interview. It was just supposed to be one morning. It was just supposed to be a memory... How did it end up like this? Sensitive and melodramatic Emmett Yang has had enough of the dating world. Enter Joe Kaminski, former quarterback—driven, determined, recently out of the closet—and knows exactly who he wants. That just happens to be Emmett. Emmett is convinced that their chance meeting is just a one-time a memory to be cherished. He doesn't think that Joe would ever really want to be with him. After all, he's...him, and Joe is Joe. He's nowhere near Joe's nebula, and there are rules and norms and mores to be followed about this sort of situation, none of which end with Joe and him together. But can the former quarterback show Emmett that there are no rules in love? Play by the Rules is a standalone gay romantic comedy in the first-person perspective. This book is steamy and includes full sex scenes, searing kisses, dramatic declarations of love and a protagonist's questionable knowledge of sexual health. It is a HEA, has no cliff-hangers or cheating, and is approximately 59,000 words.
