The Sweet Spot

I accidentally told the hottest golfer in the world I'd seen her bikini photos. She hates me. Unfortunately, we're now partners in a charity golf tournament.
Wish me luck.

Apparently, meeting your celebrity crush is a lot less romantic when she hates your guts.

Trust me. I would know.

One minute I'm filling in behind home plate for a ceremonial first pitch. The next, I've accidentally admitted I've seen Whit Marlow's bikini photos, she's convinced I was laughing at her, and I'm pretty sure she'd rather take a nine iron to my head than speak to me again.

Unfortunately for Whit, we're randomly paired together for a charity Pro-Am tournament.

She wants to win. I just want her to stop looking at me like I'm the world's biggest idiot.

The problem?

The more time we spend together, the more I realize the world's best golfer isn't nearly as intimidating as she wants everyone to believe. And the more she coaches my terrible golf swing, the harder it becomes to remember we're only supposed to be partners for one weekend.

Now I've got one tournament to prove I'm more than the guy who ruined our first meeting.

Hopefully, I don't ruin my only chance with the woman I can't stop thinking about.

The Sweet Spot is a laugh-out-loud, extra spicy sports rom-com featuring a grumpy world-famous golfer, a golden retriever professional baseball catcher, forced partnership, he falls first, sizzling banter, and one unforgettable weekend that changes everything.
