Imaginary Lines by Allison Parr
Book Three of the New York Leopards
Tamar
Rosenfeld has been in love with New York Leopards linebacker Abraham Krasner
since they were twelve years old. She'd always considered it destiny that
they'd end up together…until Abe was drafted and she professed her feelings in
a moment of blind excitement. The sting of his rejection was like nothing she'd
ever felt before, and it's nothing she'll ever forget.
Older
and wiser, Tamar has landed a dream job as a reporter for one of New York's
premier athletic websites. Determined to stop being the safe, boring girl she's
felt like for most of her life, Tamar makes a list of all the things she wants
to do and see in her new city, and Getting Over Abraham is priority number one.
But
destiny has finally chosen to interfere. Just as Tamar's decided to move on,
Abe's realized she's the only woman for him. When he confides the truth, Tamar
has to decide if she can put her crush behind her, or take a chance on the very
man who's been holding her back all these years.

she's taken a job with his team's new sponsor. As the Legends' captain, he'll

Love in Straight Sets by Rebecca
Crowley
Regan Hunter came to tennis late in life,
but she's worked hard to become one of the world's top players. Beating the
odds has made her unstoppable on the court and neurotically controlling off of
it. So when her manager hires a new coach, a has-been who left the sport after
a scandal, Regan wants him gone, fast.
Ben Percy, a former Grand Slam winner, is
well aware of Regan's reputation for driving coaches away—usually screaming.
But working with the notoriously mercurial Regan could be just the break he needs
to take his career to the next level, and he's never been one to scare easily.
He must stick to only one rule: hands off Regan.
Keeping his distance from Regan is more
difficult than Ben ever imagined. Behind her tough, sexy exterior is a woman he
wants to get to know better. And Regan feels a connection with her patient,
easy-on-the-eyes coach that's hard to ignore. But with the biggest championship
of all on the line, romance may be completely out of bounds…

The Ace by Rhonda Shaw
Book two of Men of the Show
“Love ’em and leave ’em” has been real
estate agent Karen Bently’s motto for as long as she can remember. She doesn’t
need a man, except to make her toes curl. Or so she thought, until her longtime
crush, Ace pitcher Jerry Smutton, sets his sights on her.
After signing one of the largest baseball
contracts in history with the Detroit Rockets, Jerry enlists Karen to help him
find the house of his dreams. Their connection is instant and electric, but
neither of them is the relationship type. When Jerry proposes a
friends-with-benefits arrangement, that suits Karen just fine.
Passionate sleepovers soon turn into long,
romantic evenings… Still, Karen and Jerry refuse to acknowledge they’re a
couple. Karen insists that she’s immune to Jerry’s heart-melting charm. Jerry’s
not ready to settle down. Denial is the name of the game, until one pitch
changes everything…

In the Zone
Log line: Not
every athlete is a player…
NHL player Tim
Hollander lost his temper one time and threw a water bottle at an
abusive fan. After “Bottlegate,” he’s traded to the San Diego Barracudas, where
he’ll need to keep the bad publicity to a minimum while proving he can still
compete with the younger guys on the ice.
Erin Collier is
a pediatric nurse who’s never seen a hockey game, but gets in line for Tim’s
autograph at a PR event in hopes of impressing the doctor she has a crush on.
When an obnoxious fan gets pushy toward Erin, Tim rushes to defend the pretty
stranger, throwing a punch in the process.
Grateful for
the rescue, Erin agrees to stand by Tim during the resulting press conference
and host him at a hospital charity event. Their chemistry is palpable, and soon
their lives are intertwined. But Erin doubts a hockey player is capable of
anything resembling a real relationship. And if Tim can’t get her to see beyond
what’s on the surface, they’ll never last longer than a single season…
