Synopsis Still reeling from the tragic deaths of his wife and daughter, Matt Tyler trudges through life, caring for his young son, managing his cantankerous father, and working as much as he can.

Things change when he stumbles upon Sammie Morgan—with a car that won’t run and her mother’s ashes in the backseat.

Thanks to Nancee Cain for reading and reviewing Masquerade: Oddly Suited , a young adult anthology including my sports romance short story, Behind the Catcher's Mask . Fast-pitch softball is Andie Wilson’s life. She’s a fierce pitcher hoping to score a college scholarship, and she hates the annoying distraction of cocky baseball players crashing her high-school charity game. But she doesn’t anticipate the impact of one baseball player: Colt Turner. As Colt stares at her through his catcher’s mask, his steadfast gaze may be just what she needs to guide her through a crisis. And Colt may need Andie, too—to cope with the secret hiding behind his mask. Nancee's  review reminds me that I want to share a teaser from my story with you. This scene takes place after the story, from Colt's perspective. Sharp air fills my lungs as I stride toward Andie’s front door. This early cold snap has blown in uninvited.  Welcome to Ohio . Andie skips out and closes the door beh...
