He thought their love was a grand slam, until his bride calls foul…
After an impulsive courthouse wedding with one of baseball's rising stars, Melanie Webb wonders if she's fallen victim to lust at first sight. She hardly knows Grady Hollis, the Atlanta outfielder who swooped into her Florida hometown and charmed the socks-and more!-right off her. She couldn't resist when he proposed under the stars right on the outfield. But when the aftermath means moving to Atlanta and following him around the country for his eight-month a year travel schedule, she gets cold feet.
But Grady has never been a man to give up on a dream and Melanie is everything he ever hoped for in a woman. He knows if only he can persuade her to come along for the ride, he'll convince her that their forever can be something special… with a love every bit as fiery as the passion.
The tabloids call her the Hit and Run Bride after reality show star Annamae Jessup walked out on Atlanta's favorite baseball player on cable television. Eager to escape her notoriety, Annamae takes a road trip to find the grandmother she's never met and winds up discovering a whole lot more than a band of back woods relatives. There's no escape from reality TV, even in Beulah, Alabama, population 3000.
The last thing Wynn Rafferty needs in his new life is a spoiled television princess who can't even know his real name. He's in temporary witness protection as an apple farmer after his undercover work put his life in danger. He needs to lay low until the heat dies down from his last case- even if he sucks at growing apples as badly as he sucks at relationships. But Annamae turns his new town into a media circus, unwittingly threatening the lives of him, her and most of Beulah. Wynn is an expert at keeping the world at arm's length, but when it comes to Annamae, the only way he can keep her safe is too keep her very, very close.

How to Lose a Groom in 10 Days
Cute novella with a groom determined to keep his bride after she gets cold feet! Grady is the perfect hero - patient, understanding, sexy and completely in love with his wife. Melanie takes a bit to warm up to after she ditches the groom, but she won me over by the end.

The Wedding Audition
I liked the overall storyline, loved the start, but then it kind of fell a bit flat for me until just before the end. I just didn't feel the chemistry between Annamae and Wynn. I really enjoyed the novella that started this series and I do look forward to reading the book.

Three-time RITA nominee Joanne Rock has never met a romance sub-genre she didn't like. The author of over seventy novels enjoys writing contemporary romance and medieval historicals alike, recently exploring Young Adult romance under a pseudonym. An optimist by nature and perpetual seeker of silver linings, Joanne finds romance-in all its forms-- fits her life outlook perfectly. When she's not writing, Joanne enjoys travel, especially to see her favorite sports teams play with her former sports editor husband and three athletic-minded sons.
