Publisher's summary

Should falling in love prevent you from achieving your lifelong dreams?

Jay's dream of becoming a footballer hangs by a thread. He's got a plan, though. Head down, train hard, get scouted. Which means he shouldn't go anywhere near a rising rock star with a reputation for causing a stir. That could end his career before it even has the chance to begin. Everyone knows you can't be gay if you want to play in the Premier League.

Seb's got one last chance to make it as a rock star. His motto: chase the dream. Which means he shouldn't get involved with anyone who might stand in his way. Especially a footballer stuck in the closet. Everyone knows that's a recipe for disaster and a path to gut wrenching heartache.

But when it feels this good, how can either walk away?

Risking everything is a huge gamble.

Follow your heart or follow your dreams?

The District Line boxset is the first three books in the original soccer/rocker MM romance serial featuring Kick Off, Break Through and Come Back. Packed full of first times, coming outs, hurt/comfort spanning years, eastend Londoner, Jay, and elite public school boy gone rogue, Seb, will work their way into your hearts that you'll never want to let go.

Worth the buy

I really did love this book and Gave 5 stars overall but only 4 for story. Don't let that stop you from buying it but I would like to explain why. The couple in these books were so amazing but they had so much pain that I just wished we got to see more good times then bad. Why did we have to wait for 3 books for them to stand strong together. I know it's the story line but I wished for more good time's. not so much heartbreak. I am torn about buying book 4. I want to see this couple more but I'm afraid for more heartbreak. I will hopefully read the reviews and see if my heart can handle book 4.

Great story. Great narration.

This was a beautiful love story with the highs of new love and the lows of losing love. I probably would have been an emotional mess if I hadn't read the box set. Just reading the first book by itself would have been anguishing. Seb and Jay are so easy to become attached to.

I enjoy a well constructed sports romance because I am a lifelong athlete who appreciates the struggles of balancing personal life with sports life. CF White does a great job of including the challenges of sports without spending to much time on details.

Piers Ryman is a spectacular narrator who adds depth to all the characters with his performance.

Love the couple but their angst was a little too much at times

I really liked the main characters and their feelings are well caught and displayed. But throughout the three books their doubt in each other and themselves gets a bit much for me so that I skipped at parts. I felt that they should have been more clear about their feelings already and rather have the outside issues on them (without always starting the doubt again). Both had proven their feelings already to great extend. I would have rather had issues lie Seb’s drinking (which was just a no topic suddenly) or his relationship with parents more delved into.
But the end book 3 is smooth and happy. If you like HEA you have to read at least to book 2.


The narrator grew on me and in the end I highly enjoyed him.

Altogether an enjoyable listen
