Do you see that woman holding a foreclosure notice in her hand and a screaming toddler at her feet? She doesn’t look happy, does she?
Spoiler alert: she’s not. And it has nothing to do with the peanut butter and jelly sandwich she found in her couch cushions this morning, or that fact that her kid’s favorite words is c&#$.
I’ll let you put the letters with the rest of that word, but, to fully to understand my frustration, you have to go back two weeks.
That’s when my husband of six years died of a heart attack. And I’m not sad about it. Before you go thinking I’m an emotionless shit, understand that I was sad. Was being the key word.
You see, dear friends, in those fifteen days since my husband died, I’ve met his girlfriend, who’s befriended me and to top it all off, it turns out, infidelity wasn’t the only thing he’s guilty of. He hadn’t paid our bills in four months.
Now I’m forced to rent out the room above our garage. But there’s a hitch.
The guy that rents it?
My one-night stand from the night I found out my deceased husband had been cheating on me.
The problem?
He’s a college baseball player.
And let me tell you, sister. Cason Reins, his name should come with a surgeon general warning.
He’s everything I don’t need in my life. Not only does he walk around shirtless, have a dirty mind, but his bat… it’s… wooden. No, seriously, it is wooden, but that’s not the worst part, other than him befriending my toddler? He knows how to throw a curve ball.
He wants to… gulp. Date. Me.
Now what the hell am I supposed to do?
The Champion
A powerful love story of tragedy, love, and commitment.
Jameson Riley, a NASCAR Cup series champion, has created a life for himself and his expanding family but is it what he thought it would be? He's had to overcome his own personal aggression and move through his career from the rookie he was to be the champion he is.
In a sport where you are allowed one angle, one image and everything you say and do, on or off the track, must fit in that angle, it's hard to know how to be the champion they want. He once again, has to draw a line between love and racing.
Through shuffling cars and heaving exhaust, shadows lurk in every turn and threaten Jameson's victory in his race for himself while Sway, his new wife, through her own battles within the spotlight, keeps their pit stand strong and ready for anything this life might throw at them.
Delayed Offsides
I’m Leo Orting. Team captain for the Chicago Blackhawks.
I have stick skills and puck control. I’m not afraid to be creative with the puck and shove it in your face. You want fancy, I can do that too.
I can show you skill and style all night long.
I’m also the one nobody takes seriously. The bad boy player. I’ve certainly earned my title.
Being the star front-man of the team, I’m involved in every play, on and off the ice. And because of that, my lifestyle—much like any professional athlete—has its perks, or should I say, countless puck bunnies.
Until I went and scored a goal with my best friend.
It wasn’t like I was in love with her, but I had a plan to skate my way out of the friend zone.
The friend zone should have been the least of my concerns. She crashed the net and I lost all puck control.
Because now I’ve found myself offsides, trying to avoid a penalty.
