Catching the Fly

Arrogant Ball Player? No thanks. Broody grump who rescues dogs? Yes please. Too bad he’s both.

When Annie Wright met Brandon Sims, she thought he was just an arrogant baseball player, self-absorbed and only out for #1. And who needs that? Not this girl.

But when the gruff athlete walks into her veterinary clinic with a wounded dog he’s rescued, she sees a totally unexpected side of him. Beneath his tough exterior is a guy who’s more cinnamon roll than he lets on—too bad he’s terrified of showing it.

She’s always been a sucker for an underdog. And what’s more underdog than a guy who doesn’t realize how great he is?

Grab this steamy wounded hero stand-alone about a veterinarian who can't help but fall for a grumpy pro baller and his adorable dog.
