Publisher Description
A charming new contemporary romance set in Silverlake, Texas, where love throws old rivals a curveball. . . .
Andrew “Ace” Braddock is a player in every sense of the word. The center fielder for the Austin Lone Stars, he’s also been at the center of numerous sports scandals involving beer, bars, and baseball bunnies. But when he takes the fall for a teammate, Ace wakes up in the hospital, injured and in serious trouble. He’s sent to lie low and recover at his family ranch in Silverlake, Texas, where he’s saddled with his worst nightmare: his high school nemesis—a beautiful nurse who refuses to play doctor with him.
Mia Adams has no time to fool around. The daughter of Silverlake’s high school baseball coach has three jobs and a pile of debt left behind by her missing ex. The very last thing she wants is to spend her time indulging hometown hero Easy Ace Braddock. If she didn’t need the money, she’d have nothing to do with the guy from her past who stole her dad’s time, attention, and love away from her before leaving for the major leagues.
As Mia does her best to corral the irrepressible Ace, keep a sense of humor, and fight her unwelcome attraction to him, he charms, sidesteps, and outmaneuvers her. Will the onetime enemies find love at home base, right in the town where they grew up?

Excellent
Funny, emotional, sweet & amazing!!
This is the third book in this amazing series by Liza Kendall. This book is Andrew “Ace” Braddock & Mia Adams story. It has all the feels, you will definitely laugh, cry. It was too funny with Ace driving the tractor to the local bar. I love the Braddock family & all the other characters (hoping they get their own books too!!). This family experienced such tragedy, their parents were killed by a drunk driver leaving Declan to raise his younger siblings. Each book in the series so far shows how each of the featured siblings have dealt with the loss & how they started healing as well with the help of the heroines in the books. So Ace is a professional baseball player that finally comes home again after being injured in a car accident that wasn’t his fault but took the blame for. Mia is the nurse hired to take care of him & keep him out of trouble. Mia’s ex husband left her & left her with a pile of debt which is why she took the job as her & Ace have a past. You will love their journey of healing & forgiving the past to get their HEA as well as the Braddock family coming back together. I highly recommend this book & series!!
