Join the owners of the Broseco, Moorhouse, and Williams ranches as they discuss breeding programs, grazing patterns, and the pursuit of the ultimate "beef animal." Listen as the Gibsons and the Ryans reveal their passion for the land and their hope for the future."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

But before Mays was the "Say Hey Kid", he was just a boy. Willie's Boys is the story of his remarkable 1948 rookie season with the Negro American League's Birmingham Black Barons, who took a risk on a raw but gifted 16-year-old and gave him the experience, confidence, and connections to escape Birmingham's segregation, navigate baseball's institutional racism, and sign with the New York Giants.

The rules of the game donā€™t apply off the football field in this steamy slow-burn M/M sports romanceā€”the first book of the Barons series. New York Barons tight end Gavin Brawley is suspended from the team and on house arrest after a video of him brawling goes viral. Gavin already has a reputation as a jerk with a temper on and off the fieldā€”which doesnā€™t help him once he finds himself on the wrong side of the law. And while heā€™s been successful professionally, heā€™s never been lucky when it comes to love. Noah Monroe is a recent college grad looking for a jobā€”any jobā€”to pay off his mounting student debt. Working as Gavinā€™s personal assistant/babysitter seems like easy money. But Noah isnā€™t prepared for the electrifying tension between him and the football player. Heā€™s not sure if heā€™d rather argue with Gavin or tackle him to the floor. But both men know the score, and neither is sure what will happen once Gavin's timeout is overā€¦
