Mom Ball

The last person I expected to see in the cow pasture was the father of my child . . . Especially since I'm wearing a bathrobe and flip-flops with spa cream smeared on my face. How ironic that the first time my son shows interest in baseball, his Major League dad shows up. Now it will be harder than ever to keep my secret about "Nate the Great." The complications continue when I discover Nate bought the abandoned mansion within spitting distance from my family's apple orchard. Then he agrees to help my son with baseball. When things couldn't get any more stressful, my friend Morgan tricks me into helping her coach our kids' Little League team. We all know Nate would be the perfect guy to help. But the more I'm around him, the closer I come to spilling my secret. I never told him about Timothy for fear it would ruin his career. If I confess everything, will we become a real family? Or will he hate me for keeping Timothy from him and leave town for good? This sweet-heat-level small town, romantic comedy is the second in a new series set in the fictitious Apple Cart County, Alabama. Hart of Dixie meets Sweet Magnolias as friends navigate raising kids among busy lives and nosy neighbors.
