A sexy second chance romance from NYT and USA Today Bestselling author Jessie Evans
The
home run neither of them expected…
Pike Sherman is a legend in Lonesome Point, a hometown boy who made it to the big leagues. Literally. Professional baseball acquired one hell of a pitching arm and its latest celebrity bad boy when the gifted Pike was drafted seven years ago. Pike’s broken heart came along for the ride, too, but he kept that private, and since leaving Lonesome Point has kept his distance from his hometown. But when Pike’s little sister, Mia, begs him to be the Dude of Honor at her wedding, he can’t refuse. He takes advantage of a break in the season and returns home to find himself thrown together with the one woman he never wanted to see again.
Tulsi Hearst is on the verge of losing her Equine Therapy business, and letting down all the kids she’s come to love. After a mix-up with the grant board, she needs to concentrate on finding more funding, not dealing with Pike Sherman, the boy she sacrificed so much for, and the one person she’s ever lied to. And what a lie it is… Pike would hate her if he found out. She knows she should stay far away from the brooding man her summer love has become, but Tulsi can’t resist a slow dance with the only boy who ever made her blood rush.
After just a few days back in Lonesome Point, Pike can’t imagine life without the girl he left behind, but when Tulsi’s secret is revealed, his heart is broken all over again. The only thing worse than losing Tulsi, is losing six years with the daughter he didn’t know he had.

“There’s no
point in trying to reason with a prick like that. You should have
been out of there five minutes ago, the second things starting going
south.”
“I know…I just…”
Tulsi swallowed as she forced her gaze from Pike’s lips, knowing
she’d never be able to form a sentence if she kept thinking about
kissing him. Unfortunately, looking into his eyes only made things
worse.
Their gazes
connected and Tulsi’s breath rushed out even as a fire whooshed to
life inside her.
God, she wanted him.
She wanted him as much as she had when she was eighteen and every
nerve in her body ignited with desire when they touched.
New
York Times
and USA Today bestselling author, Jessie Evans, gave up a career as
an international woman of mystery to write the sexy, contemporary
Southern romances she loves to read.
She's
married to the man of her dreams, and together they're raising a few
adorable, mischievous children in a cottage in the jungle. She grew
up in rural Arkansas, spending summers running wild, being chewed by
chiggers, and now appreciates her home in a chigger-free part of the
world even more.
When
she's not writing, Jessie enjoys playing her dulcimer (badly), sewing
the worlds ugliest quilts to give to her friends, going for bike
rides with her house full of boys, and drifting in and out on the
waves, feeling thankful for sun, surf, and lovely people to share
them with.
