Curveball

The bad boys of baseball, they are the top power hitters of the Richmond Rogues, and the team-s best hope for a shot at the World Series. But when all three have to be benched for brawling, it-s the beginning of a whole new ball game, and the opposing team could win something more than a trophy-these ladies are after their hearts. At the top of the ninth, with the bases loaded, each man realizes that happiness is just within reach, even when love throws a-Curveball. Angell continues her pairing of baseball and romance following Squeeze Play (2006) with a sexy, quick-paced tale about the Richmond Rogues. On Media Day, the three members of the "Bat Pack," the Rogues' power hitters, get into a very public altercation that ends with their suspensions for 13 games. Nicknamed Psycho, Chaser, and Romeo, they are left at loose ends. Psycho holes up in his historical Richmond colonial and is surprised when a down-on-her-luck young woman shows up professing to be an interior designer. Chaser hangs out with his childhood friend, who has inherited the ballpark concession stand. They've always been close, but will one accidental kiss lead to more? Challenged by the indifference of a reporter, aptly named Romeo redoubles his efforts to win her over. Ultimately, all three gentlemen meet their perfect match in Angell's sporty romance. When the "Bat Pack," the bad boys of the Richmond Rogues baseball team, meet three beauties with faster pitches than they've ever seen, it's sure to be a triple play of romance!
