Barry Carlson had it all, a successful career in professional baseball and the adoration of any woman he wanted. Except one. Forced to retire in his prime, Barry returns to his hometown of Summerville, New York to coach the Minor League Hornets.

Twenty years ago, Barry broke through Amanda Marsh’s trust issues. He melted her ice, won her love, then walked away without a backward glance to survey the wreckage. Now Amanda is the head of public relations for the Hornets and happily single—until Barry slides back into her life.

Still reluctant to trust, Amanda gives Barry another chance. But the announcement of their twenty-fifth high school reunion leads to an asinine bet between Barry and his old buddies, and threatens to ruin their newfound relationship. As scandals of the past and present converge, can Barry and Amanda get beyond their differences to find their second chance at love?

Excerpt

“How have you been, Amanda?”

Warmth started in the pit of her stomach and rose to surround her heart. “It’s been a long time.”

Life could be so unfair. Uprooted from an existence and career she’d, if not loved, at least became accustomed to, her emotions were too raw yet to cope with ghosts from the past.

“Yeah it has.” Clad in jeans and a worn Orioles T-shirt, body well muscled and trim, Barry moved closer until she was sure he’d hear the rat-a-tat of her pulse. “You haven’t changed, Amanda.”

Clenched fingers pushed into action, she waved a dismissive hand. “Don’t kid yourself. We’ve all changed.”

He seemed entranced with studying her. “I mean it. You look the same as I remember.”

Taking in his tone, low and sexy, her imagination soared. He’d thought about her many times over the years and any moment he’d hit one knee and beg her to put an end to his suffering, agree to love him the same way he’d always loved her.

She shook her head to dispel the ridiculous one-sided fantasy. Barry Carlson had a limitless supply of women to choose from, why would he want a used up loser like her?
