The Curve

From USA Today bestselling author Leslie Pike comes a heartfelt sexy sports romance about the way life sometimes throws you a curveball when you least expect it.

The thing about the curveball is that its entire purpose is to knock the hitter off balance. They're tough to hit, and not so easy to catch, either. But catching them is part of my job, and being good at my job is what got me where I am.

The curve I'm having a tough time catching is Charlotte Bay, the gorgeous single mom who pretends she doesn't need anything. Especially a man.

She's protective of her daughter - I get that. I come from a close knit family too. Only I sense that she's got good reason to protect Mallory, if the scars on her face are anything to go by.

They're both sweet and vulnerable, and there's something about Charlotte that makes me want to promise to take care of them both. Maybe forever.

I just have to convince Charlotte that I'm not playing games. And that if this was a game - she's already won.
