Guest Post: OUT IN THE DEEP by Lane Hayes (Out In College Stories #1)


Thank you so much for inviting me to come by and chat about my newest release, Out in the Deep! This is Book 1 in my brand new Out in Sports series. This series will feature short stories with different sports themes. First up is water polo! Why water polo, you may ask... lol. Two of my three kids were water polo players. I spent many hours at various pools up and down the California coast cheering them on and gained an appreciation for what has to be one of the most physically demanding sports out there. 

In Out in the Deep, Derek is a fifth-year senior at a Southern California college and captain of the water polo team. Gabe is the new guy... and Derek’s nemesis. He’s only a year behind Derek in school but he’s miles ahead of him in the pool. He’s well-known and well respected player with big goals. None of which include a boyfriend.   

Take a peak at the blurb for Out in the Deep. Derek and Gabe’s story is available now on Amazon KU! 

Happy Reading! Lane Hayes xo


Blurb for Out in the Deep by Lane Hayes:

Derek Vaughn is a little too serious. He’s a type A control personality with a penchant for order and a love of water polo. But he’s determined to enjoy his last year of college. The real world with a serious job and big expectations can wait for a few months. He’s going soak up every minute on campus with his friends and teammates before he moves on. The only possible kink in his plan is the new guy on the team… also known as his nemesis.

Gabe Chadwick has big Olympic dreams. His transfer between Southern California universities has nothing to do with scholastics. The degree is his backup plan. He’s not there to party or make friends. And he certainly isn’t going to announce his sexuality. But he can’t deny there’s something special about the uptight team captain. However, when an unwitting friendship and mutual attraction collide, both will have to decide if this is the real thing or if they’re about to lose it all in the deep.




Lane Hayes is grateful to finally be doing what she loves best. Writing full-time! It’s no secret Lane loves a good romance novel. An avid reader from an early age, she has always been drawn to well-told love story with beautifully written characters. These days she prefers the leading roles to both be men. Lane discovered the M/M genre a few years ago and was instantly hooked. Her debut novel was a 2013 Rainbow Award finalist and subsequent books have received Honorable Mentions, and won First Prize in the 2016 and 2017 Rainbow Awards. She loves red wine, chocolate and travel (in no particular order). Lane lives in Southern California with her amazing husband in a newly empty nest.
