A laugh-out-loud, spicy, dislike-to-lovers, college baseball romance.

Wyatt

All my friends are under the impression I'm only at Newhouse to chase women and play baseball. Those are two of my favorite pastimes.

The truth is Newhouse is my chance to save my family's farm. If I don't get drafted, we'll lose everything we've been working hard to keep.

Then I hear her sing, and she's all I can think about. It's messing up my game and putting my future in jeopardy. I need to get her out of my system, but this girl is playing hard to get.

Her roommate, on the other hand, follows a strict schedule and is easy to track down. I can ask her to help me get the girl and silence the voice in my head.

Only one problem: she hates me.

Go to a good college. Get my business degree. Work for my dad. That's all I wanted for my life.

When the idea of marrying the son of my dad's business associate was brought up years ago, I didn't mind. Falling in love and getting married were never part of my life plan. Marrying a stranger to strengthen the family business is a sensible option.

What doesn't make sense is him—the starting pitcher for the Newhouse Knights who thinks he's a gift to all women. He is not. He's a nuisance. He follows me around school, invades my privacy, and texts me non-stop.

He's becoming impossible to ignore no matter how hard I try.

I have planned my entire life with precision. I never planned on him.

Strike Zone is book two of an interconnected standalone series. The Newhouse University series is best enjoyed in order but each book can be listened to on its own. For mature listeners.
