DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn average kid with an above average talent for predicting baseball pitches tries to help his favorite player out of a slump in this New York Times bestselling novel from authors Tim Green and Derek Jeter. Jalen DeLuca loves baseball. Unfortunately his dad can’t afford to keep him on the travel team. His dad runs a diner and makes enough to cover the bills, but there isn’t anything for extras. So Jalen decides to take matters into his own hands and he sneaks into the home of the New York Yankee’s star second baseman, James Yager, and steals a couple of balls from his personal batting cage. He knows that if he can sell them, he’ll be able to keep himself on the team. But like the best-laid plans—or in this case the worst!—Jalen’s scheme goes wrong when Yager catches him. But Jalen has a secret: his baseball genius. He can analyze and predict almost exactly what a pitcher is going to do with his next pitch. He can’t quite explain how he knows, he just knows. And after proving to Yager that he really can do this, using a televised game and predicting pitch after pitch with perfect accuracy, the two agree to a deal. Jalen will help Yager out of his batting slump and Yager won’t press charges. However, when he begins to suspect that the team’s general manager has his own agenda, Jalen’s going to need his friends and his unusual baseball talent to save not only Yager’s career, but his own good name.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKJalen DeLuca applies his baseball genius to his own playing in the follow-up to Tim Green and Derek Jeter’s New York Times bestselling novel Baseball Genius. Jalen DeLuca loves baseball. But he’s more than just a fan and a talented player; Jalen is a baseball genius. He can analyze and predict almost exactly what a pitcher is going to do with his next pitch. His unique ability helped him save the career of the Yankees’s star baseman, James “JY” Yager, by signaling the pitches from the stands. Now turning his focus to his own baseball career, Jalen has to put his genius into action in new and untested ways. But without the stats and information he has on the pro players, analyzing the pitchers seems impossible. And even if he knows what the pitch will be, actually hitting it takes more than intuition. As if the pressure of the team and drama with his friends weren’t enough, one major event changes everything—Jalen’s mom comes back into his life. Can Jalen work through it all to hit a grand slam and make his baseball dreams a reality?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA steamy romantic comedy about good timing, bad temptation, and way too much tequila. Seb's the most famous baseball player in the world. Sophie's not impressed. Game on. Sophie When we graduated from college, my friends and I made a pact that we would only play this stupid game five more times--at each of our bachelorette parties. Tonight's number four and it couldn't come at a worse time. I have a meeting with a new client tomorrow. I can't be hungover. Unfortunately, I've never played this game without ending up that way. I'm already at a disadvantage with the client. It's the professional baseball team in town. I'm not much of a sports fan. I don't even know who the players are, but I guess I'll worry about that tomorrow. Tonight, it seems that, once again, I'm destined for tequila and bad decisions. Seb Don't get me wrong, I like being a professional athlete. I just wish it didn't come with so much fame. People are always staring at me and tonight's no exception. All eyes are on me as I walk into the bar--except for one pair. And they're attached to a gorgeous woman. When she finally looks up from her phone, she catches me ogling her and rolls her eyes. I don't think she has any idea who I am. Damn, that turns me on. I spend most of the night trying to figure out how to talk to her when suddenly she lands in my lap. She's playing a drinking game with her friends and has to get me to kiss her to win. I want to kiss her--passionately--but not when she's this flat-out drunk. I'd at least like her to remember our first kiss. The Next Day Sophie I'm painfully hungover. All I want to do is get done with this meeting, so I can go home and have my friends tell me about the guy I tried to drunkenly seduce last night. All I remember are his eyes--his soft, beautiful eyes. I'm on the field with my new client watching the players practice when the catcher jumps up from behind the plate and starts walking toward me. When he pulls up his mask, the eyes I've been thinking about all morning are staring at me. "Sophie?" he says as a smile starts curling at the corners of his mouth. Truth or Tequila can be read as a standalone novel or as book one of The Grand Slam Series. "Wow, wow, wow...So funny, so hot, and so sweet, all in one book. Seb and Sophie are the perfect match. I read it in one sitting." Reader Review "I read this author's Trident Trilogy. I loved those books. I was excited to see what she came up with next. Truth or Tequila is just what I wanted--funny, sexy, satisfying." Reader Review "I want to play Truth or Tequila with my friends! Hilarious scene and just a really sassy, funny book overall."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the wake of the 1929 stock market crash, an amateur golfer began a decade of unparalleled achievement, seeming a ray of light in an otherwise depressed America. Bobby Jones won the British Amateur Championship, the British Open, the US Open and the US Amateur Championship. A new phrase was born: The Grand Slam. A modest, sensitive man, a lawyer from a middle-class Atlanta family, Bobby Jones had barely survived a sickly childhood, and took up golf at the age of five for health reasons. Jones made his debut at the US Amateur Championship in 1916 and his genius was recognised by his inspiration, Francis Ouimet. However, his health was never good, and the strain of completing the Slam exacted a ferocious toll; the US Open, played in July in blazing heat, nearly killed him. Jones fought to keep his fragile condition a secret from a country suffering from the Depression, but at the age of twenty-eight, after winning the US Amateur, he retired. His abrupt disappearance at the height of his renown inspired an impenetrable myth, to this day still fiercely protected by family and friends.
