Scoring With Him (Men of Summer Duet #1) by Lauren Blakely

As a pro athlete, I’ve spent my life playing by rules, on and off the field.
Especially this one — Don’t date another baseball player.
Following that ironclad rule has been as easy for me as hitting a lazy pop fly on a summer afternoon.
Especially since I’ve got far too much trouble in my past to want to bring any into my present.
Until the day a hotshot rookie walks into my locker room. Outgoing, affable, and sexy-as-sin, Grant has confidence and talent for miles.
Doesn’t help that he’s easy to talk to, that he seems to get me, and that we each have our fair share of secrets and scars — ones we’ll both fight to protect.
All the more reason to resist the kind of trouble his lips and eyes promise.
Even after I plant a scorching, hot kiss on the rising star one night after a game.
Even after he sends me the world’s sexiest selfie.
But when Grant reveals his biggest secret, and asks for my help, I’m so damn ready to rip up the rulebook.
Turns out he’s a virgin and he wants me to help him get around all the bases.
As long as I don’t fall in love with him as we go.

Scoring with Him is book one in a two-book duet. This romance between two professional athletes spans five epic years and continues in Winning With Him.

Excerpt Scoring With Him by Lauren Blakely

I turn the corner toward the locker room, and I nearly run smack-bang into a wall of man. A two hundred pound, six-foot-three mass of muscle, cut abs, and carved jaw.

A man sporting a grin that makes my skin tingle.

The breath flees my lungs. My pulse spikes. So, this is what it feels like to meet your crush.

It feels like your body is alive. Electric. Made of sparks.

“Hey there.”

That’s it. Two words. They’re all Declan says.

But I already know.

This is going to be a big fucking problem.

The sexiest man I’ve ever seen on TV is worlds hotter in person.

And I was dead wrong when I told Reese this crush would die a swift death in person.

The opposite is true.

The object of my crush stands inches away, with deep brown eyes that travel over me and a body I want to feel under me, on top of me, next to me. I am so fucked.

I haul in a breath.

Time to pretend like I haven’t thought of scoring with him so many damn times.

Or that I’m thinking it again right this very second.
