I never thought I would meet my celebrity crush, let alone save his life. I’m a huge baseball fan and I absolutely adore the Bay Birds' first baseman, Rusty Power. With his red hair and piercing blue eyes, the man is gorgeous. That, and I love his upbeat attitude and how grateful he seems to be about playing ball. Having a celebrity crush can be fun, but it can also be depressing. I’m about as plain as a woman could possibly be, so most men ignore me. Even the fantasy of a man as incredible as Rusty noticing me is ridiculous. Baseball is my life. It always has been, and I still can’t believe I made it to the majors. Every day when I put on my Baltimore Bay Birds uniform was like a dream come true. Until one day when all that changed…I was walking on the warning track during batting practice when everything suddenly went black. The next thing I know some woman is frantically doing CPR on me. My eyes met hers for a second before the trainers pulled her away and rushed me to the hospital. I saved Rusty Power’s life. Thank God I knew CPR and had dashed onto the field during batting practice. Not only had I restarted Rusty’s heart, but I was at the hospital with him when he got the worst news of his life. He would never play baseball again.

Brady DonovanWith a baseball scholarship to Easton University and awesome family and friends, my life is pretty golden. Except, things have never come together for me in the romance department. Until Kellan Crawford walks onto the field as the team's newest bat boy. Bells and whistles go off in my body, and just like that, I'm totally crushing on a guy for the first time in my life. Too bad he's the coach's son and officially off-limits.Kellan CrawfordI'm working toward my statistics degree, so landing the bat-boy position with the Easton U Pirates is right up my alley. It keeps me close to the action on the field, even if that means hauling equipment, picking up sweaty jockstraps, and putting up with the players' antics. My dad's the coach, and his number-one rule is never to play favorites...which probably includes getting too friendly with the team captain. But Brady Donovan's annoyingly perfect smile and protective nature are making that nearly impossible.When something shifts between us at an away game, everything is thrown off-kilter. Donovan's never been with a guy before, and I certainly don't want to be his test case. But I can't seem to help myself. He's sweet and hot and somehow charms the baseball pants right off me. If Coach ever catches wind of this, he'll bench us both. Disappointing my dad might kill me, but so would losing the guy who makes my heart pound harder than a home run in the bottom of the ninth.So much for not playing favorites.*Bat Boy is a feel-good college baseball romance with swoon and banter and steam. It's a tad shorter than my other full-length novels and is intended for those readers who might need a lighter escape from the real world.

An NHL star is hot for his teacher in this age-gap, opposites-attract hockey romance. Tristan Holt may be at the top of his game, but he’s already thinking one play ahead. Hitting the books in the off-season means he’ll have a business degree to fall back on when it’s time to hang up his hockey skates. But his straightforward plan is complicated by his undeniable attraction to his sexy sociology professor, Sebastian Cruz. Impressed by Tristan’s brain as well as his brawn, Sebastian can’t help lusting after the gorgeous jock. With tenure on the line, Sebastian won’t break the rules by becoming involved with one of his students—at least, not until the end of term. Once final grades are posted, though, their naughty mutual fantasies can become reality. Tristan’s not sure he’s up for being the poster boy for openly gay hockey players, but Sebastian’s never been the type of man to keep his sexuality—or his relationships—in the closet. For Tristan, being with Sebastian might mean risking more than just his heart. Previously published. Hat Trick Book 1: Off the Ice Book 2: Goalie Interference Book 3: Trade Deadline

Harris Drover can tell standoffish Troy isn’t happy about the trade, but Harris doesn’t give up on people easily. Even when he’s developing a crush he’s sure is one-sided.

Suddenly, Troy’s move to the new team feels like an opportunity—for Troy to embrace his true self, and for both men to explore their growing attraction.
