Curve Ball by C.L. Cruz

Lucy:
My teacher life is my only life. Every day I’m pleasant, logical, and respectable except for one night when I let my passions free.
Now it’s back to the real world, and I’m determined to leave it—and him—in the past.
But that becomes impossible when he shows up at the school where I teach. Rhett Hartigan is everything I’m not. He’s popular, outgoing, and a player, literally.
A secret part of me wants to award his buns in those baseball pants my personal cuma sum laude.
The other part of me worries—do I let fear win and stick to my boring life, or do I take a chance on love?

Rhett:
As a pro baseball player, I’m used to living a big life. After an injury benches me, I take a temporary job as a coach in my old home town. My plan is to get better and get out.
But life throws me a curve ball when I discover my high school crush works at the same school. Lucy Santarosa is sweet, sexy, and has no idea her bases are loaded.
When I get an unexpected offer, do I go back to my “big life” or do I try for a home run here in Fairview?
