How could my enemy, the one who'd tortured me for years, end up being the very same woman that felt so good beneath me? I swore it wasn't going to make a difference. I was going to get the job I'd worked so hard for, and I was going to take her down in the process. There was only one problem. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get her cocky, beautiful mouth out of my mind. I couldn't help seeing her sexy body every time I closed my eyes. I needed to get my head in the game. It was either her or me. It couldn't be both of us. Then it happened, we were brought together again. Those same ...

I was going off to college, and I was looking forward to every ...

The company I worked for had been bought by who I later found out was my best friend's ex. That was one crazy story. He ended up being a retired Pittsburgh Pirate. I was just as shocked when I found out. He'd gotten three of his ball playing friends to agree to do some promotion for the company for practically nothing. I was going to be the one to get them everything they needed while they were there. Out of the three of them, I was sure there would be at least one sexy man that would have the need to release some stress, and I was all for helping him. You see, I didn't do love or ...

When I told my parents during my senior year that I wasn't going to college, they lost their minds. There was only one person that stood beside me, and that was my sister Sammie. I'd been working with computers since I was ten. Everyone laughed and joked about how much time I spent in my room. They had no idea that I'd been working on something great. Sammie listened when I told her I already knew more than I'd learn in college. She believed me when I told her what I was working on would make a difference, and she defended me every step of the way. I had big dreams, and nothing was going to...

The first woman inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, there was no one like Effa Manley in the sports world of the 1930s and 1940s. She was a sophisticated woman who owned a baseball team.

There was something about the woman that sat next to me in the hotel bar. She was beautiful in her t-shirt and jeans, and she didn't seem to notice that everyone around us was dressed to impress. When she touched my arm and I felt an unfamiliar zap, I felt the need to suddenly pull away. Minutes turned into hours while we talked, and I couldn't help but want to learn more about her. When we stepped into the elevator, we realized our rooms were on the same floor. We were right next to each other. I watched her hips move beneath the tight denim covering her curves as she walked ahead of me. ...

My life was perfect. I had a husband that loved me and three amazing children. We had two homes, a gorgeous lakehouse up north, and a beautiful, two-story home, in a wealthy neighborhood, closer to the company my husband owned. I spent my summers up north with the kids and our nanny, while my husband was only able to join us on the weekends. When the weather would start to cool, he'd come up, and we'd drive home together for the winter. I had the best of both worlds, or at least I thought I did. That winter was different. The weather cooled, but he wasn't able to come, and I didn't want to ...

When they announced the sale of our company at a meeting, I had no idea what I was going to do. I'd moved my entire life for that job. I had a lease on an apartment and was two states away from my family. I didn't want to have to move back home, not with him there. The very next day they called another meeting. I couldn't imagine what they had to say could have been any worse than the meeting before. It was bad enough that I'd gotten drunk for the first time in three years after the first meeting. I'd barely been able to get my ass to work the next day and looked awful. My best friend, ...

I was at college and finally free of the Pirates and their issues. Everything was perfect. I was still going to watch James at the home games. He didn't know it. Neither did my dad. There was no way I wanted them to think they still had any hold on me. It was my secret. When I showed up at the last game of the season, I saw something that broke my heart. It made me realize things needed to change. My dreams weren't going to come true. I wasn't going to get my man. I'd finally taken a step to move on with my life. I was going to a party to get James out of my mind for good. It was happening....

They knew exactly what he needed, time. The more they told him, the more irritated I got. While I thought James was crazy, I totally understood where he was coming from and what he was about to go through. My dad was much worse than his. He was ...

When I heard James say that he loved me, I couldn't believe my ears. I wanted it to be true. I was also so afraid that I'd wake up to hear that it had all been a mistake again. That was the second best night of my life. We were really going to be together. I wanted every second with him I could get. He was going to be on the road again, and I was so busy with school. When I'd asked him if we could wait to tell our parents, he didn't want to do it, but he'd agreed to wait until I had my apartment and we were free to do as we pleased. That day came and went, but I still wasn't ready. Why ...

I'd seen everything he had without me. It was everything we said we would have together. He had the perfect house and the perfect life. It was one I'd thought about so many times. Then it happened. She was right there in front of. I was looking into the eyes of the only reason I'd walked away from him and the life we could have had. I did the only thing I could, I ran. How could he do that? How could he rub it in my face? Why couldn't he just let me be? When he showed up at my door, I couldn't believe my eyes. When he stumbled back and stepped on that toy, I didn't know what to do. There he...

I'd had one night with that baseball player. It was one crazy, drunken mistake. I was right about one thing, he didn't make it easy on me. The man drove me crazy. Just when I thought I was rid of the hot, sexy Pittsburgh Pirate, he'd appeared again at a party. My best friend Carrie thought the party was to thank everyone at the company for all of our hard work. She had no idea that the love of her life and owner of the company was going to propose to her. It was something I wasn't missing for the world. That was my plan anyway. That was until that darn ballplayer threw me over his shoulder ...

Things weren't going exactly as I'd planned. I was still following my three rules. Don't get close, never fall in love, and always have fun. It was just getting a bit harder to follow them. I'd had plenty of fun with the ballplayer, but it needed to stop. My life was changing, and it was time for me to come to terms with a few things. There would be no more having fun for us. I would not be having fun with anyone. Too many things were happening, and I needed time to think. I was pregnant. It happened the very first time we were together. When I say very first time, I mean the day we met. ...

Two weeks, that was how long he gave me to decide. I could go home, and everything would go back to normal, whatever that was, or I could suffer the consequences of not returning. My heart was filled with disgust and hurt, as I drove away from him and back toward the safety of my brother's house. Who was that man? Had he been that way when I'd married him? If so, how had I missed it? I wasn't going back, there was no way. I just had to figure out what it was that I was going to do. Those two weeks flew by, and just as promised, there were consequences, the kind that would change my life ...
