Kenzie Hill needs a place to stay the summer before college, so when a spot opens up at her brother Aaron's 'baseball' house, she accepts. Living with a bunch of dudes who walk around shirtless won't distract her-she has plans and nothing will get in her way. Not even her brother's best friend. Tanner Johnson has one thing on his mind-his future in the MLB. After choosing to wait another year before entering the draft, he now dedicates every second to getting better on the field, or letting loose. His best friend's sister shouldn't even register on his radar. The first kiss is an accident and the second leads to more. They agree it'll just be a fling and that Aaron can never know. Kenzie's just starting her future, while Tanner's is already planned. Falling for her brother's best friend was never an option-but what happens when suddenly, it is?

Pro quarterback Burke Mannion is at a crossroads in his career—nearing retirement age, he wonders if it’s time to hang up his cleats, or keep pushing on and head to training camp in a few short weeks. The decision is delayed by an upsetting phone call from his brother, and without blinking, Burke packs for Honeymoon Harbor and the home he hasn’t seen in years. The last person he expects to see when he arrives is the woman he had once thought might be the one—the same woman who had broken up with him by text as she left New York. Having heard Burke’s stories about Honeymoon Harbor, Lily Fletcher never really believed there was any place as idyllic as he’d made it sound. But as much as she’s tried to keep her past in the past by avoiding personal connections, deep down she secretly always hoped she’d see Burke again. As Lily and Burke fall back into their unresolved feelings for one another, she knows she has to come clean about who she really is as he struggles with the choice to go back to the celebrity life he knows or embrace the one he’s beginning to think could be the true path to happiness.

There's nothing that could take my dream away from me . . . Unless I lose focus. And Ainsley Burke is the most beautiful, distracting woman I've ever met. When I'm with her, I can't think of anything else. But no matter how much I want Ainsley, there's no room for love in my game plan. I can give her a quick tour of the bases, but that's it. Then I have to let her go. If she wants to think I'm a love 'em and leave 'em player, fine. All dreams require sacrifice. I just wish this one didn't mean tearing out my own heart.

Book excerpt: Book five of Feeling the Heat Katherine Whitton doesn't purposely avoid men and relationships, but she doesn't mind that side effect of immersing herself in her job with the San Francisco Blaze. Years ago she was betrayed by her one true love, and she's never fully recovered, though she's tried by building a new life in a city she loves. It's taken seventeen years for Tom Morgan to get over Katie—Katherine now. Sober now and faced with the incredible opportunity to manage the Blaze, he thinks he'll finally be able to handle working with this beautiful woman without falling to pieces…as long as she doesn't get too close. A crisis with the team's star pitcher forces Tom and Katherine to put in long hours together. Years of animosity melt away as the sexual tension between them ignites. But it'll take more than scorching kisses to avoid the wreckage of the past. And neither Tom nor Katie are sure they're ready to trust each other or risk their hearts for a second chance at happiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dirk Hayhurst has done it again. . .Turns out he's a starter and a closer." —Tim Kurkjian, ESPN As a major and not-so-major league pitcher, Dirk Hayhurst has learned to master more than striking out batters. While waiting for his name to be called in the bullpen, he honed his gifts as a storyteller, one the New York Times calls the "best writer in a baseball uniform." In this often hilarious collection of adventures on and off the diamond, Dirk details the intricacies of pulling off an epic team prank, even if it's at his own expense; the art of creating the perfect professional baseball nickname; his comically ineffective attempts at writing romance novels; and the bizarre tale in which a bear gets punched in the face (yes, really). No matter how wild his story, Dirk proves once again he knows that it's all in the delivery. "I find his writing both entertaining and thought provoking. . .unlike his fastball." —Ben Zobrist, Tampa Bay Rays All-Star "Dirk Hayhurst writes about baseball in a unique way. Observant, insightful, human, and hilarious." —Bob Costas "Hayhurst delivers an entertaining story for more than just sports fans." —Jordan Bastian, MLB.com "Hayhurst explains life in the minors and the major leagues like you've never read it before." —J. J. Cooper, Baseball America "Insight and humor from the pitcher's mound." —Businessweek 51,300 Words.

Or at least it was until my roommates ditch me and my baseball-playing brother Bates gets the bright idea to move in and bring his best friend Archer with him. The more the merrier, he says. The problem is, Archer and I had a one-night-stand last year and now he thinks we’re meant to be together. I, however, strongly disagree because not only is he Bates's BFF, but I’m also his agent, and I need him throwing balls, not wanting me to play with his. There is no way I’m going to jeopardize my career by breaking that cardinal rule again. Nope, not happening. Unfortunately, he’s as stubborn and determined as I am and what Archer wants, Archer gets. This time he’s not letting me go without a fight... *A lighthearted, steamy rom-com with all the heat that you'd expect to be feelin' in the midst of a baseball player's locker room. Be ready to laugh out loud with this roommates to lovers, romantic comedy. Note: There were no jockstraps harmed in the making of this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A jock and a party girl teaming up—makes total sense, right? Actually, maybe... Ambar Hernandez is a senior communications major who has no idea what she wants to do in life. She spends most of her time working on her blog after gaining a lot of readers with a story she wrote junior year and...never followed up on. The last thing she expects is an angry jock accusing her of involvement in a scam that could shake the college to its foundations. Jeff Maddow should be focused on his senior season of baseball and not the suspicious activity happening on the team. It's his time to shine and get drafted, but after seeing incriminating evidence, he can't not investigate. And his first lead is the campus blogger...who's related to a name in the document he saw. Ambar's been coasting, writing about campus fashion and hook-ups rather than politics and economics, but when Jeff shows up at her place spouting wild accusations, she agrees to help him just to prove the stubborn athlete wrong. Long nights, impassioned arguments, close quarters...both Jeff and Ambar find opposites more than attract when things heat up. Reader advisory: This book contains scenes of underage characters drinking and using harsh language. There are references to inadequate parenting and the criminality of a family member.
