Playing Hardball, Part 2 (A Love for the Game #2.2)

By: Sharon Cummin

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

I'd had one night with that baseball player. It was one crazy, drunken mistake. I was right about one thing, he didn't make it easy on me. The man drove me crazy. Just when I thought I was rid of the hot, sexy Pittsburgh Pirate, he'd appeared again at a party. My best friend Carrie thought the party was to thank everyone at the company for all of our hard work. She had no idea that the love of her life and owner of the company was going to propose to her. It was something I wasn't missing for the world. That was my plan anyway. That was until that darn ballplayer threw me over his shoulder and carried me away like a caveman. I tried to get rid of him. I really did. He just wouldn't go away. My best friend was moving two states away, and I was going to help her. When she called all excited to let me know we were going to have help, what was I supposed to say? Of course he volunteered to help too. Why wouldn't he? It wasn't like a star professional pitcher had anything else do with his time. I could do it. That was what I told myself over and over. All I had to do was get through packing, travel for over five hours, stay the weekend, and travel back alone with him. Then I'd get rid of him for good. There would be no reason to ever see him again. No problem. It was going to be a piece of cake. When would I ever learn that nothing was that easy when it came to Lance Smith?
