𝑩𝒍𝒖𝒓𝒃: 

In Cherry Cove, some secrets don’t stay buried—no matter how hard you pitch.

Jake Chambers has it all lined up: a star spot on Highland College’s baseball team, scouts watching his every move, and a future in the majors within reach. Life’s good, and it’s only getting better with Jenica Miller—the one girl he swore wouldn’t mean anything—now taking up more and more space in his heart.

Jenica’s plan is simple: survive junior college, save every penny, and get the hell out of Cherry Cove for good. No boys, no distractions—especially not the golden boy of Highland baseball with his crooked smile and complicated past. But the closer she gets to Jake, the harder it is to walk away.

Last summer changed them both. Now, with their hearts on the line and secrets they swore to bury rising fast, Jake and Jenica must decide…run from the past, or face it together and risk everything.
