As the team owner's daughter Maggie Jameson grew up in
the New York Saints stadium. The team is her extended
family and the fans adopted her "Saint Maggie", the teams
unofficial mascot. Baseball has been in her blood and she
has been shaped and molded her entire life for baseball.
Having attended college in Chicago to earn her degree and
the skills needed to take over the team when her father
was ready to step down. That was until she was
blindsided when her Dad decided to sell the team to Alex
Winters and his friends.
Alex Winters,and his two best friends, Mal & Lucas, love
and lived baseball in college. All three were excellent
players, but things changed in a instant when a bomb
exploded during a game. The three friends reacted on
instinct and dove into the wreckage to save lives. But
their heroic acts have come at a price...no longer able
to play the game they all love.
When Alex wanted to buy his beloved struggling team, the
Saints, Mal & Lucas were there to back him up and help
out if needed. He wants to revive the team and keep them
in New York. He hopes with Maggie's support, he will be
able to make the ownership transition smooth for everyone
involved.
As the sparks fly between Alex and Maggie, Maggie's anger
turns to passion and their attraction heats up. When
Maggie finally gives into the temptation that is Alex, a
former disgruntled employee also puts in a bid for the
team out of spite. Now his pending ownership and
relationship with Maggie is being threatened.
When the second bidder for the team offers Maggie her
dream of running the team, it is only then that Maggie
realizes that her own desires do not mean anything if it
will not benefit the team and its players.
THE DEVIL IN DENIM is a great start to the New York
Saints series. Melanie Scott has created a great cast
of
characters that has introduced the reader to a side of
sports romance that many haven't been exposed to, the
management aspect of it. Melanie Scott easily portrayed
in her writing the close knit community which consists of
the team and their wives are with Maggie. Melanie Scott
is a new author for me and I am looking forward to the
next book in the series, Angel in Armani.
LIFE JUST THREW HER A CURVEBALL. As the team-owner’s
daughter, Maggie Jameson grew up in the New York Saints’
stadium—glove, cap, hot dogs, and all. Baseball’s in her
blood, and she’s always dreamed of the day when she would
lead the Saints to victory herself. That was before her dad
had to sell the team to Alex Winters. The fast-talking,
fiercely attractive businessman has a baseball pedigree
that’s distinctly minor league. Maggie wants to hate him but
his skills of seduction, however, are off the
charts.
WILL LOVE BE A HOME RUN? Alex could
never have imagined how much this team means to Maggie. He
needs her to help show the players that they’re still a
family…even if he and Maggie are at the verge of exchanging
blows. But her fiery determination and gorgeous looks prove
irresistible to Alex. And much as he wants to relegate their
relationship to the playing field—and get the Saints back in
the game—Alex just can’t help himself: What he wants to win
most is Maggie’s heart…in The Devil in Denim by
Melanie Scott.
