Crossing the Touchline Jay Hogan

What if you've worked your whole life for a dream, to play rugby for the most successful sports team on the planet, the New Zealand All Blacks?

What if that dream is so close you can smell it?

What if you meet someone?

What if you fall in love?

What if your dream will cost the man who's stolen your heart?

And what if the dream changes?



Reuben Taylor has a choice to make.

Cameron Wano is that choice.



Reuben Taylor has a chance at rugby greatness, to play for the New Zealand All Blacks. But Reuben is gay and still in the closet. He needs that All Black position to live his dream, but also to ensure he can provide for his nephew who is likely on the spectrum. Reuben's brother is struggling as a parent, and Reuben's dad is a viscious homophobe. Reuben just needs to keep his head down till he gets in the team and secures that position, then maybe, just maybe, he can come out.

But Reuben hasn't counted on falling for out and proud, Cameron Wano. Cameron is everything Reuben wants and now he has a choice to make.
