The Wild Card: The Dugout, Book 2

About this book

Foster Davis is the brooding, tattoo-covered closing pitcher for the Chicago Colts, known for his one-word answers and a life lived with one foot out the door. Callie Carlisle is witty, sassy, and fiercely independent. When a one-night stand between the star pitcher and his teammate’s younger sister results in an accidental pregnancy, their lives are turned upside down. Instead of running, Foster steps up, insisting they navigate this new reality together. They move in with the goal of being straightforward co-parents, setting strict boundaries to keep their hearts safe. However, living in close quarters quickly erodes those defenses. As Foster reveals a tender, protective side hidden from the public eye, and Callie discovers the man beneath the cynical exterior, their plan to keep things strictly professional begins to crumble. Featuring the beloved "accidental pregnancy" and "forced proximity" tropes, this sports romance explores the vulnerability of letting someone into your life when you've spent years building walls. As the lines between co-parenting and something more begin to blur, Callie and Foster must decide if the risks of opening their hearts are worth the ultimate reward.
