Synopsis
Life loves a good curveball… Seventeen-year-old Annie Lucas is too
young to remember her dad’s glory days as a pitcher for the Yankees. So when
her father is offered a coaching position with the Kansas City Royals, Annie is
intrigued to see the baseball side of her dad. Of course, knowing he’ll be a
mentor to hot young rookie pitcher, Jason Brody, certainly makes it more
enticing. After an awkward first meeting with “Brody” involving very little
clothing and a much-too-personal locker room interview, Annie’s convinced she
knows Brody’s type: arrogant, self-involved, bossy. As her dad grows closer to
the pitching phenom, the friction between Brody and Annie increases. But when
opening day arrives and it looks like both her dad and Brody may lose their
dream jobs, Annie steps up and offers support. She and Brody call a truce that
grows into friendship—and beyond. Falling for a rising star who’s quickly
reaching a level that involves rabid female fans is not what Annie would call
smart, except suddenly she’s getting hints that maybe this crush isn’t
one-sided after all. Could someone like Brody actually fall for a girl like her?
Julie Cross lives in Central Illinois with her husband and
three children. She’s a former gymnast and longtime gymnastics fan, coach, and
former gymnastics program director with the YMCA. She’s a lover of books,
devouring several novels a week, especially in the young adult and new adult
genres. Outside of her reading and writing credentials, Julie is a
committed—but not talented—long-distance runner, creator of imaginary beach
vacations, Midwest bipolar-weather survivor, and expired CPR certification card
holder, as well as a ponytail and gym-shoe addict.
