Being the only woman working for a professional baseball team isnt easy.? As the San Diego Shocks newest athletic trainer, Allie knows all about long hours, endless travel, and warding off players advances. Given shes already the subject of a handful of rumors about how lucky she was to have earned such a coveted position, she cant so much as flutter an eyelash a players way if she wants to be taken seriously. ? But number eleven is doing more than fluttering eyelashes Allies way. Far more. Luke Archer is at the top of his game and doesnt let the fear of striking out keep him from swinging. This is a motto he applies both on and off the field, but Allie appears immune, seeming to view Luke as nothing more than caution tape on legs.? Hes a player, and in Allies experience, theyre all the same. She wont risk her job or her heart to another one, no matter how different this one claims to be. But as Allie gets to know him, she discovers the number eleven the public thinks they know is very different from the real Luke Archer. He seems too good to be true.? And maybe he is.? Allie will have to confront the stories attached to a player of Luke Archers stature and decide who shell put her faith inThe man shes falling for? Or the rumors?
