Rafael May Cetzal just wanted to play rugby.
Instead, he becomes a headline.
After a viral confrontation puts a target on his back, Rafa's life shrinks overnight into tight schedules, unfamiliar rooms, and constant eyes on him. The club calls it protection. Rafa isn't so sure. He's on a visa, his status suddenly under a microscope, and there's no such thing as moving freely anymore.
Enter Jonah Kincaid.
Jonah is the team's attorney-precise, controlled, and impossible to read. His job is to manage risk. His assignment is Rafael. What that looks like in practice is simple: Rafa doesn't go anywhere alone. Jonah is always there. Driving him. Waiting outside doors. Stepping in before things can spiral.
At first, Rafa resents it. The watchfulness. The quiet authority. The way Jonah seems to anticipate every move before he makes it.
But Jonah isn't distant the way Rafa expects. He's steady. Careful with him. The one person who doesn't treat him like a problem to be solved. And somewhere between long drives, shared silences, and the strange intimacy of always being side by side, Rafa finds himself drawn to the man who's supposed to keep things strictly professional.
As pressure builds-from the club, from outside forces, from a system that was never built to protect someone like him-Rafa has to decide how much of himself he's willing to give up just to stay safe. And Jonah has to face the reality that keeping Rafa protected might mean breaking every rule he's ever followed.
Because in a world that keeps trying to close in around them, choosing each other might be the most dangerous-and necessary-decision of all.
Against the Line is a high-stakes queer romance about power, protection, and what it means to hold on to yourself when everything is trying to take you apart-and to let someone else hold you anyway.
