Summary

Nick is the captain of a homophobic basketball team but things aren't quite simple. Nick is actually a closeted gay guy and he has feelings for the very same guy his team not only hates but verbally insults with homophobic slurs, Ezra. With the entire basketball gang homophobic, how will Nick get noticed by Ezra for who he is and showcase he's not the same type of guy his homophobic team is? *A crossover from my novel You've caught my eye* Contains: Homophobia, minor bullying, some mild swearing (as usual) but it is censored. *This is not an erotic novel.* Also available on Tapas and Wattpad

Extra information:

Modified chapters: All the original chapters have been split into two, thus why chapters either go by full number or has .5 added to showcase the other part, by example: 1-Hidden deepest secret and 1.5-Hidden deepest secret. It’s fair to say some small changes has been made to make that happen, especially to give those chapters suspense they hadn’t had due to being a full chapter but now it’s split into two.

This novel originally comes from the platform Tapas and it doesn’t work the same. Anyways, I have decided to split chapters in two to give you all the best experience possible.

First off, you don’t need to like basketball to read this novel. Even though basketball is the sport one of the main characters does, the novel is not based on that.

Age rating: 16+ due to the homophobia label

I’d also like to mention that any slurs words, judgement, pre-justice, homophobia or even racism if it happens aren’t things that I condemn. The characters will have a long way to go to learn how hurtful those words can be.

Through I’m also aware that it might showcase reality as some of you might actually be going through this too. Just know that this is a safe place and a safe environment.

By the way, this novel is meant to be read in order, chapter wise. If you don’t follow in order, things will be extremely confusing. Thank you for respecting that.

As this novel is a sequel to the novel You’ve caught my eye, I strongly suggest to read that novel, as spoiler alert, it’s related in some ways to this novel.

It’s not an obligation as both novels work as a novel alone. Through, as this novel goes on, I suggest reading it to understand better what is being referenced.

Regardless, it was made before Notice me for who I am and it’s part of a series I created Everyone has their own story. Therefore, You've caught my eye is book number 1 in this series and this novel is book number 2 then, there's now book number 3 Love always wins.

Here is the list of order of those related sequels as of January 17th 2024:

Everyone has their own story

-Book 1= You’ve caught my eye (LGBTQ+)

-Book 2= Notice me for who I am (BL, boyxboy)

-Book 3= Love always wins (GL, girlxgirl)

Final note

Update of 31/10/23:

I have decided to add a list of song suggestions for music lovers that represent this novel or explains well what is going on overall or in a specific chapter.

-Not watching anymore, by Mahalo

(It represents well Nick's thoughts, so it would automatically be in his pov)

Now moving on to the final given information's.

All cover arts are made by me! Including the one for this novel. So, if the quality of the cover arts aren’t that good it might be related to the fact I don’t have strong skills in designing nor drawing.

Any form of support will be greatly appreciated! I’m also open to feedback.

Thus, if there’s any major mistakes or issues don’t be afraid to mention it. Feedbacks helps grow the novel and as an author myself too. I take tips, advice, mentions of issues or grammar mistakes to heart, so I take it very seriously. My goal is to give you all the best experience possible. If you don’t mention it, chances are I won’t notice there is grammar issues, as I tend to not notice until someone or a grammar tool points it out.

For instance, if there are any key mistakes with the way characters talk for example Ezra or even too much, let me know because I am by no means British nor have I met one as of yet. I’ve tried to do the best I can.

Therefore, if you desire you can leave review. I would gladly appreciate it. It would help me as an author and help this novel's growth.

By the way, most issues that do get mentioned do get fixed the moment I am available to fix it, so the fastest possible. Through, if there is any other issues or grammar mistakes that handers understanding that don’t get mentioned, chances are they won’t get fixed as I am pretty busy and I tend to not notice those mistakes until someone points it out.

Thus, if any updates aren’t mentioned in advance, it’s therefore not new chapters. It’s only technical issues such as grammar mistakes being updated or fixed.

I hope this was all you needed to understand the novel better!
