I’m so bad at the dating game that revenge on my ex seems hopeless, until I make a wild pitch for a hotshot pitcher to become my dating coach.

HOPE “DARLIN’” GARCIA
After my ex boyfriend left me for my now ex best friend, I’ve thrown myself into the online dating circuit to find someone I can get my revenge with on the next Friendsgiving. But between a demanding schedule as a physical therapist for the Orlando Wild baseball team, and the fact that I’m an oddly aggressive but still upturned turtle, it’s been one disaster after the next.
I can’t let my ex(es?) think that I’m a failure, but I need serious help. And the person I know who has the most game with the least amount of effort is the team’s pitcher, a.k.a. the Cowboy. So I have a wild pitch for him: become my dating coach.
There’s only one problem: he really annoys me, especially when he calls me “darlin’.”

CADE “COWBOY” STARR
According to my agent, this Spring Training is my only shot at showing the team that I have what it takes to become the starter pitcher. But my plan to focus only on baseball gets disrupted the moment I witness Hope Garcia being humiliated during a bad date.
I may be an orphan, but the great state of Texas raised me well enough to never ignore a damsel in distress. Especially not one who says the most amusing things when I call her darlin’. I just have to make sure that she doesn’t distract me from my real goal of becoming a baseball star—pun intended.
Oh, and also, that no one in the staff finds out about our little arrangement. Pretty sure that could be seen as a conflict of interest or worse.
But the problem with wild pitches is that they often get out of control…

Wild Pitch is a dual POV, closed door baseball romance with mild language, and heat without spice. It’s the first book in the Wild Baseball Romance series and can also be read as a standalone.
