Eve is used to being the odd woman out. As the only girl on her school's baseball team, she knows exactly how to put sweaty, macho baseball players in their place, and she's learned to focus on one thing and one thing only-being the best pitcher she can be. But when a freak accident forces her school to be absorbed by the neighboring town, Eve has to contend with a new group of guys who aren't used to having a woman on their team. And the new team's star pitcher, Jamie, has no interest in being ousted from his throne. He can't afford to give up his starting slot to a new pitcher-especially to a girl. As the competition between Jamie and Eve starts to heat up, so does their attraction to each other. Can they keep their heads in the game, or will they end up getting played
Praise for Karole Cozzo:

"A budding romance with family drama and a feel-good ending." --School Library Journal
"A book of acceptance, bravery, and most of all, love. It's a book that will touch everyone's hearts." --Bibliophile Soprano
The Truth About Happily Ever After:
"A great, fun read that you'll find hard to put down. Although it doesn't shy away from some difficult topics, generally speaking, it's a really cute story that will have you smiling (okay, and probably crying at times too). This will make a perfect summer read!" --Kourtni Reads
