Erotic, Contemporary Romance
When
the players take the field this spring come meet my players...
Will the bad-boy
pitcher strike out when it comes to love?
Shy music
teacher Sophia Ballis has sworn off men. After a bad experience with a college
jock she decided it was better to be alone than to get burned again. She
focused on her education and now her new job at a local private school.
Professional
baseball pitcher Paxton Hughes is a player both on and off the field. He's
signed to the Kingston Crushers to bring home the coveted championship title.
Nothing can get in his way. Serious relationships don't mix with a life on the
road and he never loses focus on the game. One-night stands are his specialty
for a reason.
While out
jogging one spring morning, the two collide, setting their course in motion.
Pax is immediately drawn to the unassuming beauty. Sophia is aware of his
reputation and decides one night of meaningless sex with the attractive Texas
charmer is just what she needs to get over her self-imposed dry spell. Pax has
more than a one-night stand on his mind, but will his bad-boy persona and
demanding schedule ruin any chances of a happily ever after?

“Can I walk you
to your car?”
“Thank you.”
Sophia got up from the table and took his hand. “I’m parked right out front.”
Pax led her
across the dance floor, waving to the few people who were left, and then out to
the parking lot.
“It’s that one.”
She pointed to her beat-up car, the one she’d bought her freshman year of
college. It was used then but it still managed to get her where she needed to
go. “Probably not as nice as what you drive.”
He leaned her
against the car and wrapped his arms around her waist. Her heart pounded hard
against her chest, strumming loud between her ears. She could smell the beer
that lingered on his breath. His hazel eyes narrowed as he swiped the tip of
his tongue along his top lip before tilting his head.
“I have a
feeling I’m going be seeing you in my dreams tonight.” He sighed as he brought
his mouth to hers. “Give me something to remember these next few days.”
She nodded as
she placed her hands on his broad shoulders and guided him to her, closing any
space between them. When his warm lips touched hers, she thought she would
explode. A burn coursed through her and settled between her legs. The mild
tingling she’d experienced when they danced was nothing compared to the
intensity she felt now.
As he deepened
the kiss, his tongue massaged hers. Increasing his hold on her hips, he pinned
her between the car and his massive thighs. She tightened her grip on him when
his erection grazed her center. Every nerve ending in her begged to be
satiated. The ache inside her stomach moved lower until the dampness invaded
her panties. Her nipples poked against the thin material of her silk bra.
When she moaned
into his mouth, he placed one last kiss on her lips before pulling away. He
looked at her for a moment, pressing his forehead to hers, as he stuttered a
few words.
“That
was...well, I’ve never...” He ran his fingers through his hair. “You have me
tongue-tied, sugar. That doesn’t happen often.”
Now she wanted
to know what else he could do with that tongue.
“You best get in
that car and drive away before I...”
She’d never
wanted to have a one-night stand more than she did at that very moment. Maggie
had said if there was ever a guy to have one with, Pax would be the one. He was
a no-strings-attached player. Why hadn’t he asked her to go home with him?
“Be safe driving
home.” He reached for the handle and opened her door. “You have some sweet
dreams. I know I sure will.”
Sleep? That was
the last thing on her mind.
Ella Jade has been writing for
as long as she can remember. As a child, she often had a notebook and pen with
her, and now as an adult, the laptop is never far. The plots and dialogue have
always played out in her head, but she never knew what to do with them. That
all changed when she discovered the eBook industry. She started penning novels
at a rapid pace and now she can't be stopped.
Ella resides in New Jersey
with her husband and two young boys. When she's not chasing after her kids,
she's busy writing, attending PTO meetings, kickboxing, and scrapbooking. She
hopes you'll get lost in her words.
