Dylan Voss has spent his college basketball career waiting for his name to be called-and getting very good at pretending it doesn't hurt when it isn't. Then Garrett Keane notices him. Garrett is a former player turned athletic trainer: confident, infuriatingly observant, and completely off-limits. What starts with late-night practices and stolen moments becomes impossible to ignore. For the first time, Dylan isn't wondering whether someone sees him.
He's wondering what happens when the person who sees him best could lose everything for wanting him. Then Dylan finally gets his shot on the court. And it doesn't go the way he dreamed. With his place on the team uncertain and his relationship with Garrett threatening both their futures, Dylan has to decide what he actually wants-and stop waiting for someone else to choose him first. Bench-Warmer is a steamy M/M college sports romance about ambition, forbidden attraction, falling hard, and finally choosing yourself.
