Can she count on the pitcher to save her dream, or will his secret destroy their futures?
Bea Curran has forged a career as an umpire in Chicago's semi-professional baseball league, and now she's ready to move toward her dream of leading the women's athletic department at Western College. With her reputation on the line, the last thing she needs is a romance with a player known for his womanizing ways. But when her women's baseball team desperately needs help, she can't ignore the one man who could save them.
Emmett Worland, a talented new pitcher in the Chicago City League, has been keeping a painful secret that could end his baseball career for good. While he tries to hide his worsening illness, Emmett agrees to help coach Bea's struggling team in hopes that it will be a step toward redeeming a bad reputation he didn't earn.
Bea and Emmett's undeniable attraction deepens the more time they spend together, but with so much at stake, can they afford to let their hearts lead the way? Or will the shadows of the past and the uncertainties of the future destroy their chance at a happily ever after?
