About this ebook

Baseball player Nathan Hawkins needs to get away from Chicago. After a near career-ending car accident and with paparazzi surrounding his penthouse, Nate can only think of one place to go: home. But when he finds his old apartment occupied by a half-naked woman wielding a baseball bat, he's not sure what to think…except that maybe his luck has finally changed for the better.Librarian Dorie Donelli never thought she'd get to meet her fantasy man in person—much less in her bathrobe. To her surprise, her nearly naked run-in with Nate leads to more unclothed encounters. But Dorie is sure their fling is only temporary. As long as she remembers he'll be gone once his life gets back on track, she won't get hurt. In the meantime, she throws herself into enjoying their three weeks together before he has to report for spring training and go back to his old life.For Nate, being with Dorie is the only time in months that he finds himself smiling. Laughing. And he has no intention of letting that go. He might even be falling in love…if only Dorie will let him say the words. What they have isn't just a dream, but the start of a dream come true.This book is approximately 101,000 words

Ratings and reviews

Adored this one! As a debut novel this one definitely hits it out of the park (sorry had to)! Nate and Dorie were absolutely adorable and the push pull of their relationship was highly entertaining. The secondary characters, specifically Nate's sisters and her family were hilarious. After everything seemed to come so easily to Nate it was fun to watch him have to work hard at convincing Dorie that what they had was more than a fling. The dual POV's made this perfect. Understanding where they were both coming from and what they wanted made the story that much more interesting. Can't wait to read more from this author. I highly recommend this one.

About the author

A big believer in happily ever afters, Jen Doyle decided it was high time she started creating some. She has an M.S. in Library and Information Science and has worked as a librarian, an events planner, and an administrator in both preschool and higher ed environments (some might say that there is very little difference between the two; Jen has no comment regarding whether she is one of the “some”).
