Playing Hardball, Part 5

Playing Hardball, Part 5

Live Sept. 6.



Lance took the news of my pregnancy much better than I thought he would. He was awesome and totally into the idea of being a dad. He'd even bought us a house and taken over my apartment. Everything our baby needed was bought. We were ready and still had a month to go. 

Don't get me wrong, we definitely had some ups and downs along the way. 

When I say ups and downs, I mean more like a roller coaster ride. 

Just when I thought things were getting back to normal, as normal as things ever were for us, something happened that changed everything. 

Our baby was in danger. 

Would everything be okay? 

Our little one had to be fine. 

My world was crashing down around me. 

There was only one person I wanted to be there with me through it all. 

It was the man I loved. Yep, I loved him. There was just no way I was going to let him find out. 

You see, I didn't deserve love. I didn't deserve a happily ever after. I just had to figure out how I was going to convince him of that.

I had just gotten home from spending a few days with two of best friends in Vegas. All I wanted was a little time to relax and rejuvenate before going to work the following day. I'd just set my bags down, closed my door, and fell onto my couch when my phone rang. 

I should have known it was my big brother. That was always a joke with him. We were twins, and he was minutes older than me. He'd been protecting and hovering over me my entire life. Of course he'd call to make sure I was home safe and in one piece. He was a thousand miles away, but it never felt like it. 

When he announced that he was getting married, I was surprised. They had only known each other for about a year. What he said next shocked me even more. They were getting married in two weeks, and he wanted me to be in the wedding. 

I hadn't been home for more than a moment in over ten years. He'd come to visit me plenty of times, and he'd even brought her with him. No matter what was happening, I'd always found a way out of going home. His wedding was the exception. My brother was getting married, and I needed to be there. 


There was only one problem. 

His name was Jackson, but I called him Jackie. 

He was my brother's best friend and the reason I'd been running for so long. 

Could I do it? Could I face him after all those years? 

I didn't have a choice. I knew I had to go, but I didn't have to do it alone. 


I talked one of my best friends into going with me. His name was Chris. I promised him a weekend of fun on the beach with all expenses paid. 

That all changed the moment I saw HIM. I did the only thing I could think of and hoped it wasn't going to blow up in my face.

A Crush on Her Best Friend's Brother
Complete Box Set

$0.99 pre-order



Rachel was away for her first year in college. She had remained a virgin all through high school and was tired of waiting for the right one to come along. 

Brad was her best friend's brother and two years ahead of her in school. He was tall, muscular, and extremely sexy. 

Rachel had a huge crush on Brad when she was younger. He was the one who kissed her for the very first time. When she went to high school, she saw a side of him that she didn't like. He was arrogant and extremely cocky. Being the star of the football team gave him many advantages, and those advantage went straight to his head. 

When Brad left for college, Rachel was able to avoid seeing him for two wonderful years. She was thrilled and had no intention of seeing him anytime soon. Home for the Thanksgiving holiday, Rachel hoped she could continue to avoid him. 

What if he wouldn't let that happen? 

Would all of her feelings come rushing back, or would she remember who he really was? 

When faced with the chance of being with the only guy she ever loved, would she give into those old feelings, or would she walk away? 

This is the description for part 1. I didn't want to give away any spoilers.

Playing Hardball, Part 4



Things weren't going exactly as I'd planned. I was still following my three rules. Don't get close, never fall in love, and always have fun. It was just getting a bit harder to follow them. 

I'd had plenty of fun with the ballplayer, but it needed to stop. My life was changing, and it was time for me to come to terms with a few things. There would be no more having fun for us. I would not be having fun with anyone. Too many things were happening, and I needed time to think. 

I was pregnant. It happened the very first time we were together. When I say very first time, I mean the day we met. What were the chances? Could it really happen? It sure could. I was a perfect example of that. Imagine telling that one to the baby one day. 

Neither of us wanted love, and we surely didn't want a relationship. He had a career that was not even close to being over. The man was the star pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates. I was a girl with a past. There was no way our worlds would ever fit together. 

I just had to figure out what to do. 

Would I tell him? 

Of course I would. 

I just wasn't sure how I was going to make that happen. 

I also had no idea how he was going to react to the news. 

Just when I thought I could do it, I opened the door to the biggest sign and reality check ever. 

Part 5, the final part, will be available September 6, 2016.

"Playing Hardball" Part 3 is live

Playing Hardball, Part 3

$0.99 and free through kindle unlimited



We made it through the trip. It wasn't easy though. You remember me saying I'd be rid of him, right? It didn't happen. I don't care what I did, he was still there. For one reason or another, he was there. 

My best friend and his friend decided to get married. They called to let us know. Of course they couldn't make it easy. We had to be there the next morning. Ugh! Talk about notice. 

We made it in time for the wedding. It only made sense to drive together. I ended up so glad we did. Something happened and I'd gotten sick. The man had to make things even more difficult for me. He took care of me the entire time. He lost time with his friend to take be there for me. Once we'd gotten back home, I told him to go. Did he? Of course not. He was right there until he had to leave. 

I know that sounded sweet of him. It was. I had never been taken care of like that, not ever. He had to make it that much harder for me to follow my rules. Those three I'd been following for years. Don't get close, never fall in love, and always have fun. I had to keep following them for his safety and mine. It had to be that way. They couldn't be broken. I had my reasons. 

I was still sick two days later. That crap wouldn't go away. My friend's mom suggest I take a pregnancy test. Yeah right! There was no way that was possible. I was never having kids. Did I say never? I meant never ever. Those days were over. That would never happen. 

I went to the store and got the test just to prove her wrong. 

I did my job. Then I waited. When I lifted that stick, my entire world changed. 

It couldn't be. There was no way. It wasn't possible, was it?
