Book Review: The Fly-Half by Charlie Novak (Lincoln Knights Series, Book 2)
Charlie Novak delivers another compelling romance in The Fly-Half, the second instalment of the Lincoln Knights series. This sports romance beautifully captures the tension between friendship, jealousy, and the fear of risking a long-standing bond for something more.
The story follows Jonny, a talented fly-half for the Lincoln Knights rugby team, as he grapples with an unexpected wave of jealousy when his best friend, Devon, starts dating someone else. Jonny has never viewed Devon as anything more than a friend—until now. The realisation that he may have deeper feelings hits him like a rogue tackle, leaving him struggling to maintain his composure both on and off the field. His internal conflict plays out in a series of impulsive, heated moments, leading to a gripping emotional journey as he tries to come to terms with what he truly wants.
Charlie Novak’s writing shines in her portrayal of Jonny’s emotional turmoil. His jealousy feels raw and authentic, and his growing attraction to Devon is handled with nuance and sensitivity. Devon, as the steadfast and loyal best friend, provides the perfect counterbalance to Jonny’s inner chaos. Their chemistry is undeniable, making the slow burn of their relationship all the more satisfying.
Beyond the romance, The Fly-Half excels in its depiction of the rugby world. The camaraderie of the team, the pressures of professional sport, and the dynamics of being an openly queer athlete are woven seamlessly into the story. The themes of self-discovery and vulnerability add depth to what is already an engaging romance.
For fans of MM sports romance, this book delivers everything you’d hope for—angst, yearning, sizzling chemistry, and a heartwarming payoff. While it can be read as a standalone, it’s even more rewarding if you’ve read the first book in the series. The Fly-Half is a must-read for those who love a best-friends-to-lovers trope with a side of intense, emotional pining.
