Worth the Chance

Evey Lyon

Baseball star Spencer Crews knows April can't stand him, yet his proposition of temporarily living together is the biggest curveball of his career . . . 
 
 
 
Making a certain kind of video with my enemy (who happens to be everyone's favorite baseball player) was not my proudest moment, but I blame the alcohol for Spencer's smirk three seconds before our clothes ended up on the floor for our one-night mistake. He said he deleted the video, which is why I didn't expect the jerk to interrupt my date a few months later to break the news that we have a problem. His solution is to avoid the press by staying at his lake house to hide away and I stupidly agree. 
 
 
 
The next thing I know, I have two tiny eyes staring at me. 
 
 
 
Yep, I discover Spencer is a hot single dad to a cute little girl secret. And that's not the only twist, because the small town by the lake seems to bring us closer; all of us. Spencer and my arguments fizzle out, and our looks grow longer. We talk like it matters and study one another's bodies. It feels like we are in our own little world. And in the end, I'm not sure if it's Spencer or me who's trying to convince us we may just be worth the chance . . .
