Rose West thought a change of scenery might spark her next novel-but she never expected it to come in the form of palm trees, stadium lights, and one brooding baseball captain back in her home state Miami. At 23, Rose is a romance writer with a loyal online following and a serious case of writer's block. Hoping Miami's heat can melt away her creative freeze, she agrees to let loose this summer to travel with her Dad and his Baseball team.
Tanner Parker-27, team captain, and as emotionally guarded as he is physically flawless. On the field, he's laser-focused and impossible to ignore. Off the field? He's an enigma wrapped in a game face, with no time for distractions... especially not ones with messy buns, sarcastic comebacks, and notebooks full of fictional love stories.
But when fate keeps throwing them into each other's paths-from dugouts to late-night rooftop talks-walls begin to crack. And what starts as reluctant banter turns into undeniable chemistry neither of them saw coming.
