Play Along By Liz Tomforde (paperback)

🌶️KENNEDY

Being the only woman on the Windy City Warriors’ training staff means every move I make is under a microscope. I’ve worked too hard to let anything jeopardize my career — especially a wild night in Las Vegas with the team’s shortstop.

One blurry morning, one unexpected ring, and suddenly I’m married to Isaiah Rhodes. Reckless. Charming. Infuriating. And now, apparently, my husband.

To keep my job, we have to pretend this wasn’t a drunken disaster but a deliberate choice. A real marriage. A united front. Turns out the old saying is wrong — what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay there. Sometimes it follows you home wearing a smirk and a baseball jersey.

ISAIAH

I’ve had a quiet crush on Kennedy Kay for years — the brilliant, fiery trainer who never gives me the time of day. So waking up in Vegas with her in my bed and a wedding band on my finger? Best surprise of my life.

We only need to stay married for one season to keep her reputation intact. But I’m planning to use every inning, every road trip, every stolen moment to show her I’m more than a mistake she’s trying to fix.

Kennedy might be hesitant to play along, but this is one game I’m determined to win. So come on, sweetheart… let’s see how long you can resist your husband.
