Professional baseball player Nicolas Cordova is having the time of his life. His team has just won the World Series, and with the victory comes more fame, women, and exposure than he ever could have imagined. But things are about to change for the sexy, charismatic athlete. He never expected his ex-girlfriend to walk back into his life, much less the locker room. These days Sage is smarter, more mature, and doesn't plan on being played a second time. Her appearance stirs old memories for Nic. She's the one he let get away in the name of his career. He vows he can be the man she needs this time around. Will that be enough to mend her broken heart? Content Warning: contains explicit sex and adult content ~Excerpt~ "I want to know the woman you are today. I want another shot at this." "No," Sage whispered. "If you remember anything about me, I have a hard time with that word." Nic tipped her chin up, his gaze focusing on her lips. "I am going to kiss you. Right here and right now." Her knees buckled as a cool tremor swept through her. She wanted to say no. It was the only logical word to mutter, but her heart didn't want her to say it. Her body wasn't on board with turning him down either. The warmth that built in her stomach had moved lower, and now all she could think about was his lips on hers. "It doesn't sound like you're asking," she breathed out. "I'm not." Before she could say anything else, his mouth was on hers, eager, but slow and soft. His stubble grazed along her chin as he tilted his head and deepened the kiss. The sound throughout the crowded lobby seemed to fade into the background, and soon all she could hear was her heart pumping loud between her ears. Why did he have to be such a freakin' good kisser? After the incredibly long connection, he pulled away, but not before stopping to kiss the bottom corner of her mouth like he used to. "I've waited a long time to do that," he said. "It was worth every lonely minute." "I… Nic…" She'd always had the gift of words. It was what she did for a living, but in that moment, all of her thoughts were jumbled and senseless. "It's okay." He grinned as he stroked her cheek. "Let's get something to eat and maybe figure this out. Whatever this is." "No." She ran her hands along his strong chest, resting them on his shoulders. "Don't over analyze this, baby." He glanced down at her hands on his body. "Let's just go with it." "That's what I'm trying to tell you." She took a breath and continued before she lost her nerve. "Take me upstairs to your room. I know how we can figure this out." "What are you asking?" He placed his hand on the small of her back, drawing her closer to him. "You need to be real clear." "I want to go upstairs with you." "That's not why I kissed you." "Isn't it?" She smirked. "We're adults now, Nicky. Let's settle this like adults." "I'm not looking to settle anything. That usually means it's over, and we're nowhere near over." He motioned for Joe. "I'll take care of the bar tab and then we'll get dinner." "No." She draped her arms around his neck, intoxicated by the idea of being so close to him again. He may be older now, and may have lost those boyish looks, but the man he had become suited him and drove her wild with need. "What did I tell you about that word?" "I can guarantee I won't be using it once we're in your bedroom." She ran her tongue along her top lip. "I'm going to the ladies room. When I come out, if you're not by the elevators waiting for me, I'll know that kiss was nothing more than the heat of the moment and we can go on with our lives." "Sage?" "Shh." She pressed her lips to his. "Now who's over analyzing?" She reached for her purse and coat hanging on the back of the stool. "I'll see you in a few minutes." I hope. *GET THIS BOOK NOW FOR THE DISCOUNTED RELEASE PRICE OF 99 CENTS - OFFER VALID ONLY FOR A LIMITED TIME* Buy Links: Beachwalk Press Amazon Barnes & Noble  Ella Jade has been writing for as long as she can remember.
