Curve Balls and Second Chances (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999386859)

Small towns never forget. Neither do first loves.

Rose McAllister thought she had her life figured out-coaching her women's softball team, running her business, and keeping her heart under lock and key. But when Acen Wheeler returns to Pickwick Bend after twenty years, the past comes rushing back with him... and he doesn't come empty-handed. A Polaroid from their youth. A confession that shakes her carefully guarded world.

As if that weren't enough, Briana-the girl who once stole both Acen and Rose's trust-shows up polished, poisonous, and ready to stir the town gossip mill. And then there's Declan, the steady newcomer who makes Rose laugh when she least expects it, offering the kind of safe and easy affection she's never known.

Now Rose is caught between what was and what could be, between a love that scarred her and a chance at something new. With old wounds reopened, small-town whispers growing louder, and playoff season on the line, Rose must decide whether she can forgive the boy who broke her heart-or if it's finally time to choose a different path.
