Back Off! That's My Jock

Defining his sexuality didn't make sense until his best friend spelled it out.

Doug Archer did some pretty idiotic things in the first eight weeks of his junior year of college. First, he kissed his gay best friend, and second, he kissed a guy he'd mistaken for a girl. Not stellar moments for Doug. If he isn't careful, he'll lose his spot on the soccer team to the new freshman, or worse, he might misconstrue his new friend Rob's overly affectionate tendencies for flirting. But if Doug isn't bothered by another guy's attention, and he normally dates girls, does that mean he's gay or bisexual?

Sam Garber suppressed his same-sex attraction his entire life. His father told him it was immoral, and Sam did everything he could to bury his feelings. However, after meeting Doug at a party and kissing him, Sam can't think of anything else. He decides dating girls is the best way to keep his secret hidden. With playoffs in sight, this is no time to think about guys in any other context than soccer. Only neither boy anticipates the difficulty in suppressing his attraction for another jock!
