As a professional baseball player, women have never been a challenge.
\nUntil I met her.
\nBrunette. Beautiful. Vivacious.
\nJust as I’m ready to take my shot, my teammate jock blocks me.
\nTurns out he saw her first.
\nThat was two years ago.
\nAs luck would have it, our paths crossed again, and this time, I don’t waste a second.
\nI want my chance.<\/p>\n

Lark and Brenner’s story first appeared in the limited release anthology Playing To Win. This novella has been revised with additional chapters.<\/b><\/p>\n

Now he covers sports for a new station and his covering his old teammates ex-girlfriend; Lark who is on her way to the Olympics for beach volleyball.

International Bestselling Author and self-proclaimed french fry addict, Christy Pastore writes sexy, contemporary romance books that contain no nonsense (mostly) heroines and swoony gentleman with a naughty side.<\/p>\n

Readers so overwhelmingly embraced one Wicked Gentleman, Jackson Hart specifically, turning many of her #AuthorGoals into a reality.<\/p>\n

When Christy\u2019s not turning her risqu\u00e9 thoughts into something worth reading, you\u2019ll find her geeking out on all things pop culture, obsessively stalking Pinterest for home interior ideas, lunching with friends, or researching her next vacation destination.<\/p>\n

She has strong opinions about folding laundry, fruity wines, the Oxford Comma, fashion, and mixed vegetables.<\/p>\n

Christy lives in central Indiana with her husband and their three loveable cats, Cheeto, Dorito, and Brew. But as cute as they are, please send scratching posts asap because they\u2019re slowly destroying the furniture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
