Minor league umpire Alice Darling loves everything about
baseball. That means hunky ball players are strictly off
limits—dating one would be professional suicide. With a
young daughter and a brother to care for, she can’t afford
to slip up.
Truth is, as a young, stupid, nineteen-year-old townie, she
did once date a player. That’s how she wound up with her
precious, nine-year-old daughter…and a determination to
never make that mistake again. Alex Ross’s arrival in
Florida for spring training, though, shakes her resolve in a
big way.
Alex, a catcher for the Major League’s San Francisco Felons,
has never let much get in the way of his game. One look at
Alice changes everything, and he finds himself pursuing her
with a single-minded purpose that plays hell with his
concentration.
Booted back to the minors, he returns to Florida with his
tail between his legs to work on his swing…and heat things
up with Alice. But when rumors of their affair hit the
sports blogosphere, Alice’s career is put in jeopardy, and
their love starts to look more like a strikeout than a home run.
Warning: When a catcher struggling with his swing meets a
stubborn single-mom umpire, his bat won’t be the only thing
that heats up. Contains car sex, bed sex, sex sex, and a
little angst for good measure.
