Maybe that’s what we look for in the people we love, the spark of unhappiness we think we know how to extinguish.

Third Base is coming November 2, 2017 from Stella

Every baseball player knows to keep their eye on the ball and swing for the fences. Each base counts, but a home run is the goal. No one wants to strike out. This is true both on and off the field.
Ellie Teller had been my best friend since we were born, and we had a plan—get out of the tiny Alabama town we’d grown up in and go to college…together. But even life’s best-laid plans could throw a powerful curveball. Rather than attend classes, I was now the starting pitcher for a Major League team.
While my game-day stats were impressive, my record with women was less desirable. I was the professional baseball player who hadn’t been able to make it past third base since the one and only night I’d played hardball with my best friend.
But when the bottom of the ninth came to a close on my career, I had to decide if our friendship was worth more than a few extra innings.

A new steamy standalone Romantic Comedy from USA Today bestselling author Pamela DuMond.
Charlotte: I was an assistant at a Matchmaking Agency living on Insta-Ramen, hope, and dreams. How was it possible that I made a love match that resulted in the society marriage and decadent wedding reception of the year?
Joe: As heir to the Delacroix dynasty, I avoided society affairs like the plague. I hit the reception to drop off a bottle of Scotch. I didn’t plan on colliding with the sexy, pretty woman with the pouty lips. Certainly, didn’t intend to spill liquor all over her dress.
Charlotte: What kind of jerk spills Scotch all over… I glared up at the tuxedo-clad brick wall of a man holding the serving tray, and went weak in the knees. He was the most smoking hot waiter I’d ever seen.
Joe: I was an honorable man, always cleaned up my messes. But every press of the napkin against Charlotte’s gown filled my brain with filthy, dirty thoughts.
Charlotte: Hot Waiter was practically feeling me up in the middle of the ballroom. Worse? I was enjoying it. Hang on. Wait just one minute – he’s my new CLIENT? Fine, I’d work with the gorgeous jerk. But I didn’t care how hot he was – I would never. Ever. Sleep with him.
Joe: My grandmother hired Pouty Lips to be my Matchmaker? Oh yeah — I was totally going to sleep with Charlotte…
GAME ON…
~~ A Second Chance Romance. ~~

Why should you believe your eyes? You were given eyes to see with, not to believe with. Your eyes can see the mirage, the hallucination as easily as the actual scenery.

Life, he realize, was much like a song. In the beginning there is mystery, in the end there is confirmation, but it’s in the middle where all the emotion resides to make the whole thing worthwhile.

I used to think anyone doing anything weird was weird. Now I know that it is the people that call others weird that are weird.

A fallen boxer.
A woman with a broken dream.
A competition…
He
even makes me forget my name. One night was all it took, and I forgot
everything and anything except the sexy fighter in the ring who sets my
mind ablaze and my body on fire with wanting…
Remington Tate is the strongest, most confusing man I’ve ever met in my life.
He’s
the star of the dangerous underground fighting circuit, and I’m drawn
to him as I’ve never been drawn to anything in my life. I forget who I
am, what I want, with just one look from him. When he’s near, I need to
remind myself that I am strong—but he is stronger. And now it’s my job
to keep his body working like a perfect machine, his taut muscles primed
and ready to break the bones of his next opponents…
But the one he’s most threatening to, now, is me.
I want him. I want him without fear. Without reservations.
If only I knew for sure what it is that he wants from me?
“I’m the realest fucking thingyou’re ever going to have.”
“You can’t, Brooke, you can’t leave. You’re mine”
You’ve claimed me, little firecracker. You kicked a
pair of two hundred pound men’s asses. I will never get over that. You
kicked my whores out. Pete told me. You staked your claim on me, even
before you realized I’d staked mine already.” He fists my hair and pulls
me close to his lips. “I’m yours now … Even if I screw this up, I’ll
still be your screw-up.
