The Third Baseman
Synopsis
y name is Jupiter Reeves, and I am a fraud.
It’s not that what’s written about me isn’t true.
I am the greatest third baseman of my generation, possibly ever.
I am surly and unapproachable.
I do have a constant scowl, with an armour of tattoos.
And to the outside world, I play my role as the bad boy of baseball like I was born to do it.
But when the doors are closed and you boil it down, I’m nothing more than a man who lost his heart too young, with no prospect of getting it back… especially as I still have no idea where its current owner is.
That was until I was offered an opportunity I couldn’t refuse:
Leave the Los Angeles Dodgers – where I’ve played my entire career – and join The New York Lions in exchange for tracking down the one woman who’s consumed me since the day I first saw her fourteen years ago.
Job done.
Now we’re under the same roof once again; except Marnie Matthews wants nothing to do with me, or my heart.
So along with winning the Commissioner’s Trophy, I have the added challenge of winning back the only woman I’ve ever loved before the season ends, and convince her to stay in New York with me.
I might have been stupid enough to lose her once, but I’m definitely not going to do it again.
Marnie Matthews is about to become the biggest achievement of my life.
