"A girl? In the major league? Impossible."

At least, that's what everyone said, until baseball prodigy Sarah Stroker is drafted by the Chicago Cubs. 

In a story of defiance and overcoming, Sarah will have to deal with cases of hatred, misogyny, gender roles, lack-of-faith, love-life despairs, and being too-famous-to-function. 

Slow-burn. Long chapters. Probably not-so-frequent updates.

Brody's Girl 2 by still_just_me

To save her family's business, a small-town baker returns to a television competition that made her a national laughingstock, where her partner is the professional baseball player who broke her heart. After another disaster hits my poor bakery, I reluctantly return to the competition that made me a laughingstock on national television two years ago. The stress-charged challenges are the same nightmares I haven't missed but with a celebrity twist. My partner is not just a star pro baseball player...He's the boy who broke my heart. The boy who left me behind grew into the hottest man I've ever seen. I'm not 'Brody's girl' anymore, but the heat between us burns hotter than the ovens. Interest in us boosts the show's ratings, prompting the producers to request we fake falling for each other. We agree under the condition of securing our place in the final round, but Brody's eyes are on a different prize-me. When my flooded hotel room leaves us rooming together, pretending that all of my first-love feelings aren't returning crumbles under our sizzling chemistry. Just when our rekindled relationship seems too good to be true, Brody reveals how much he's behind our reconnection, and the realities of our different lives again threaten to tear us apart. 18+ for mature language and explicit content.

Badboy & The Troublemaker by legallysandeep

This was one of the first stories I wrote, read at your own risk :') "Oh don't act so innocent. I know you did this" I snap at him. "Yea so? You got me suspended for a week, so what if your dad's pissed at you?" he says shrugging. "I hope you fucking know that this means war" I say pulling him up by his collar. ●○●○●○ Ash Harper is not your average Malibu barbie, with fake tans and Gucci purses. Or with the pink convertible. She's the badass troublemaker, with a hot motorcycle, sexy leather jacket, a troubled past, and a mysterious aura. Leaving everything she's ever known behind, Ash moves to LA with her Dad, where she meets Austin Aimes, who is a conceited, egotistic asshole, or at least to Ash he is. What happens when their worlds collide? Sparks fly as a certain boy threatens to break the walls Ash has built high. Secrets are revealed, hearts are broken, love triangles are formed, and of course where Ash goes, trouble follows. A story of Hate-at-first sight. --Completed August 4th, 2014--

Highschool Sweethearts by K-good

Katelyn has been in and out of the foster system since her mother died when she was young. After her father gets put in jail again, she gets sent to live with the Thomas family. The Thomas's are a very well-off family with four boys. Their house is usually the main hangout for the boys and their friends. Kate hasn't ever lived with siblings before, let alone this many boys, so it's a big change for her. Daniel is your typical high school football player; he's got the looks, the muscles, talent, and even the overbearing dad who wants him to go pro. Daniel, however, really couldn't care less about a career in football, he loves the game, but it's his dad's dream for him to go pro, not his own. At least not anymore. He spends most of his free time away from his house and hanging out at either the Thomas or the Copperfield house. He can't wait to go off to college with his friends and get away from his dad and the stupid little town he grew up in. How will things change for them over the next year? This will be a series of 4, but the other books will be spin-offs and can be read as stand-alone books. They will, however, be published in chronological order. Full warning, this book is much shorter than I intend on making the spin-offs. I was planning on writing book two as the first in the series but found myself needing more of a prequel to all three other books, and so I chose to write something from their high school years. Bonus points for giving Daniel a love interest that was more than just a name.

Forced to be civil to each other, the two start off as rocky friends, to sort of friends, to best friends. They soon become too close...inseparable, and their attraction toward each other grows until they realize their friends were right. They are perfect for each other, but is it worth it to lose their friendship over a hook-up or two? Or are they better off as friends?

Given their success and the attention on them some skeletons from their past are bound to reintroduce themselves putting a dent into what should be their happily ever after. Navigating only seeing each other half the year would've just been too easy, wouldn't it? ***This story will include heavy topics, I will do my best to include trigger warnings where I feel they are needed however it will be based on what I FEEL so I may not tag everything that you as a reader may find triggering, (There's nothing wrong with things triggering you that I don't tag everyone just has different things and it'd be impossible for me to know all of my readers potential triggers) topics that will be included in this story and in-depth more so than the first book are; Domestic Violence/Abuse, Sexual Abuse, Death, among other things. HERE IS YOUR WARNING in advance so you don't have to read if you feel as though you may not be able to handle those topics.*** ***This is a work of fiction and should be treated as such, any depictions of real-life people are in no way a reflection of how they are in real life, their thoughts, views or opinions nor should they be treated as if they were. Again this is a work of FICTION*** (If anyone is good at book covers LMK if you wanna make me one lmao)
