Hank Fletcher is an ace. He has a deadly arsenal of three pitches. The first: a one-hundred miles per hour (mph) plus, fastball. The second: an eighty-five mph slider that falls off the table as it crosses the plate. And the third: a sixty-five mph knuckleball that floats down to home plate like a butterfly. He's the only pitcher in the history of Major League Baseball to ever throw a one hundred mph fastball and a knuckleball.

In the last game of a season the Red Sox would hope to soon forget, they face-off against the New York Yankees, with a chance to send them home, too. Hank Fletcher is called-up from the minors to pitch, and he's well on his way to completing a no-hitter,  when he's suddenly confronted by the ghost of his abusive father.

Can Hank overcome his past and finish the no-hitter?

The full-version is available now at Amazon.com (all countries), Kobo, Barnes & Noble, and Google Play.

When Jake Wolff met Nick Zami, he didn't realize he had found his best friend for life. When Jake becomes the varsity coach for Brennan High baseball and elects Nick his assistant coach, Jake awakens to see he holds the entire world in his hands. Jake Wolff has loved baseball ever since he knew what the word meant so when he gets a chance to coach, he can't help but jump at the opportunity. He didn't realize, however... How much he didn't know about Brennan baseball's program. With the help of Nick, Jake begins to rebuild the Brennan baseball program from the ground up after former head and tyrant Rick Lane tore it down. His methods were crude, unconventional, and the kids didn't learn anything. To say the least, they're a disaster. After learning what Lane did, Jake is worried he'll come back and try to break the team again. Jake's doubts are always quelled by Nick but he isn't sure Nick can quiet the biggest one he's ever had. But through everything, can Jake and Nick work together to make this season unforgettable and teach Brennan High's team that baseball is so much more than that little ball with the red seams? And will Jake's biggest doubt... Come true? Or is the friendship with Nick even stronger than both of them know... ACCLAIMED CRITICS SAY THAT THE GIFT OF A COACH IS: "beautifully spoken word" "makes what seems like a boring and dull sport extraordinary" "I started reading planning to read just a few pages, but I couldn't put it down!"

"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~β€’~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~β€’~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends. Fun times. (First book in the Gilded series) ~β€’~ [#1 Streetracer - 4/21/21] [#1 Gangs - 9/16/21] [#1 Boxer - 9/12/21] [#1 Fighter - 12/11/21] [#2 Boxing - 9/3/21] [#1 Girlpower - 2/12/21]
