A widow and a bad-boy hero with PTSD find healing in a fake engagement in this sexy stand-alone baseball romance!

Drew Marshall, the Rockets' bad-boy shortstop, is about to be cut from the team. In the middle of spring training, his baseball skills are slipping, and his recent scrapes with the law place him in hot water.

Drew's agent hires spin doctor Jessica Barnes to save the shortstop's career. Widowed Jessica knows nothing about baseball, but she's determined to rescue her client. Along the way, she needs to prove she's finally over the death of her risk-taking husband.

Alas, a well-intentioned teammate tells ravenous paparazzi that Jessica is Drew's secret fiancée. Now the couple is trapped in the same hotel room, sharing one bed, a fake engagement, and a mutual attraction that's hotter than the Florida weather.

What could possibly go wrong?
