Crushing on Him

2021

Forbidden. Off limits. Dangerous. This desire for my teammate was all of those things. For the last few years I crushed on him safely, from a distance. Then on the first day of spring training, I come face-to-face with him for the first time and when our eyes meet and linger, it’s a whole new ball game. A much bigger risk too, one that can threaten my brand new career. But, he’s always been irresistible... CRUSHING ON HIM is a prequel in the Men of Summer series and it leads into the full-length novel SCORING WITH HIM. You don't have to read CRUSHING ON HIM to enjoy SCORING WITH HIM, but you'll likely enjoy this story before the story!

But even though I have a wicked crush on the sexy shortstop on my baseball team, I won’t give in to my fantasies about him. I’m here in the majors for the first time to play ball. Not to experience my first time with a man. Trouble is, Declan Steele is sexy, flirty and now he’s my new workout partner. We’re spending mornings together in the gym, getting to know each other. Our connection is powerful – maybe because we each have our fair share of secrets and scars. Ones we'll both fight to protect. I've got far too much trouble in my past to want to bring any into my present, no matter how much I long to sneak into his room at night and ask him a question. But soon I can’t keep all this desire under wraps. I take chances for a living, so I take the biggest chance one night at spring training when I send him the world’s sexiest selfie. Right along with a question – would you be my first? But falling for my teammate wasn't part of the plan. Scoring with Him is book one in the utterly addictive Men of Summer series. This romance between two professional athletes spans five epic years and continues in Winning With Him.

The Men of Summer Collection

2024

A passionate forbidden sports romance between a rookie and a veteran on the same baseball team, The Men of Summer Collection includes all three full-length, bestselling novels in the Men of Summer series performed by Teddy Hamilton and Jacob Morgan! Experience the fan favorite sports romance that spans first times, heart-stopping emotions, and five epic years… As a pro athlete, I have one unbreakable rule when it comes to men—Don't date another baseball player. Good thing I haven't been tempted once in four years in the majors. Until the day a rising star walks into my locker room. Outgoing and sexy-as-sin, Grant has confidence and talent for miles. But, I've got far too much trouble in my past to want to bring any into my present. All the more reason to resist the kind of dirty deeds his lips and eyes promise. Especially as I get to know the man. Even after I plant a hot kiss on the rookie one night after a game. But when Grant tells me his secret one night–he’s never been with a man and he wants me to be his first–my resistance flies out the ballpark. The only rule? Don't fall in love with him as we go. I try. I swear I try not to fall for him. But once I break that rule, my life is turned upside down, and I’m forced to choose between love and baseball.
