Christmas Curveball

by Shari Mikels

Genres: Holiday books; Contemporary Romance

Synopsis

When newly single Rachel Tanner finds out that pro pitcher Kevin Ganlin has come home to recover from an injury, her heart skips a beat. She's loved him from afar since her preteen years, never bold enough to let him know.

Kevin is less than thrilled when Rachel shows up at his doorstep. She's his best friend's little sister and officially off-limits. Besides, he's staring early retirement in the face, a one-man pity-party with no interest in anything more serious than quick flings on the road. Until an icy mishap lands Rachel cozied up on his sofa, irresistible in his practice sweats.

A little game of Truth or Truth reveals much more than Rachel had ever dared to hope and leads to a midnight make-out session that leaves them both panting. But can she trust that he's truly changed his ways? This Christmas, Kevin will do whatever it takes to make Rachel understand she's the only one for him.
