BOTTOM NINE
Gwen Scott wants to love her job with the Charleston Thrashers, the MLB team sheโs worshiped since she was a kid, but she canโt. Hateful colleagues and mind-numbing work make her days unbearableโuntil her head for baseball gets her exclusive access to the Thrashersโ clubhouse and she comes face-to-face with Tyler Ashe, the teamโs sexy shortstop and baseballโs most ineligible bachelor.ย
BASES LOADED
Ty has sworn off relationships in order to focus on his all-star career, but with his best friend gone, his team struggling, and the press blaming him for every loss, the most recognizable man in the majors is in a slump. Until he starts spending his time off the field with a stern blonde who recites baseball stats for kicks and sees through his arrogant faรงade.ย
TWO OUT
As the Thrashersโ season gets into full swing and Gwen adjusts to her new job, their fun banter and friendly teasing turns into stolen kisses and countless steamy nights. The teamโs strict policy against player-staff relationships throws a curve ball into the mix, but they canโt hide from their feelings any more than the most famous man in baseball can hide from the spotlightโฆย Julianna Keyes is a Canadian writer who has lived on both coasts and several places in between. Sheโs been skydiving, bungee jumping and white water rafting, but nothing thrillsโor terrifiesโher as much as the blank page. She loves Chinese food, foreign languages, baseball and television, though not necessarily in that order, and writes sizzling stories with strong characters, plenty of conflict, and lots of making up.
