When nineteen-year-old Hooters trainee Jessica Sekely meets
Jose Canseco -- one of the most famous baseball players of
his time -- she falls in love with the slugger and
everything about him. He is larger than life, from his
bulging muscles and multimillion-dollar contract to his
huge homes and hot cars. And he is as handsome a man as she
has ever seen. But his sprawling house in Florida becomes
her gilded cage when Jose is on the road, hitting home runs
and bedding women in American League cities from Anaheim to
Boston. Jessica blames herself and does everything she can
to keep Jose faithful—nose jobs, new breast implants, and
even going so far as to bring other women into their home
for threesomes. But it wasn't enough. It was never enough. Through it all, she breaks through the icy stares of the
wives and girlfriends of Jose’s teammates and learns to
honor the code of the baseball sorority -- If you see a
ballplayer with another woman, keep your mouth shut! While Jose, author of Juiced -- the #1 New York Times
bestseller about steroids in baseball -- seems intent on
self-destruction, Jessica willingly goes along for the
ride. Their turbulent relationship careens from steroids to
pregnancy, from marriage to the birth of a precious baby
daughter, from private investigators to divorce attorneys --
with a black eye. This is the story of a beautiful young
woman who falls in love with a hugely successful
professional athlete, and who becomes addicted to him and
to everything that his success seems to represent. It is
also the story of a woman who spends the better part of ten
years trying to beat that addiction, and who finds her true
self in the process. Jessica Canseco's story is for every
woman who has ever fallen for the wrong man. But unlike
many such tales, this one has a happy ending.
