    About this ebook

    Everyone has issues that they grapple with – money, school, love, identity – but not everyone works those issues out through literal grapples. Adam Gretzky does. Every week he joins his university's collegiate wrestling team in challenges of strength, dominance, and masculinity. As a pretty small guy still living in the closet, those just happen to be the things that terrify him most.

    And when he's on the mat, limbs tangled in limbs and skin against skin, hiding the fact that he's gay is more difficult than ever. For Adam, grappling... becomes its own issue.

    Grappling is a gay M/M slice of life romance novel exploring boy love, male friendship, tough identity politics, and (ultimately) triumph.

      My wife, Gin, once knocked gently on my head, as if it were a door. “Hello,” she kept saying. “Hello. Who’s in there?” She and our therapist, Dr. Sherby, laughed a little about this, so I did, too. What fun. Keep knocking on my head like that, like i
