About this ebook

Hailey Tate thought she was worth more than a straight flush.


Apparently not.


When camera-shy author Hailey Tate’s agent loses a bet and brokers a deal, it leaves Hailey in the last place she wants to be: backed into the corner of Publicity and Paparazzi. Now, thanks to her girl-next-door image and role as pretend girlfriend to a womanizing shortstop, she's getting the attention she always managed to avoid.


Connor Ryan is not only America’s Sexiest Athlete, he’s also the current Bad Boy of Baseball. But when he goes a base too far, management wants to bench him…permanently. One thing he never counted on? Falling for his sweet, fake girlfriend. He’s the guy who can catch anything and now she’s next on his list

Hailey is a very ordinary looking woman, a loner who loves writing for teenagers and hates meeting new people. Connor is a baseball player and voted America's sexiest sportsman. After being a bit of a diva at his old team he's moved to a new team and been accused of kissing (or worse) his captain's wife. In desperate need of wholesomeness makeover his agent arranges for a fake relationship to take the heat off and stop alienating the young female demographic. Hailey's agent loses a poker bet and ends up making Hailey the sacrificial lamb. Understandably reluctant, Hailey is not impressed by her first meeting with Connor, or indeed her second where he sneers at the idea that he would ever date her. And as for the idea that she needs some kind of clothes and hair makeover ... keep walking buddy! As Connor and Hailey are forced to pretend to date 'under the radar' they actually become quite good friends, Hailey doesn't stand any nonsense from Connor and she brings him back to earth. Also her tiny apartment is more cosy and comfortable than his million dollar penthouse with views. Connor is convinced that he loves his single life and has no desire for a wife, kids, a dog, or a picket fence - but is he lying to himself? I got this as a Kindle freebie - I note it is now £4.99 which seems a bit of a bargain! I enjoyed this, engaging characters, a makeover, and a fake relationship - what more could you want?
