Kissing the Player

The best way to forget the guy who never knew you existed? Come back to town and work for his baseball team, of course.

The world knows him as Silas, Briggs, sexy baseball player on a hot streak. I know him as the jerk who walked away when he got drafted. He was my brother's best friend, which by definition means he's off limits.

When I get a job offer too good to refuse, I can't let some tiny detail, like it happens to be for the team Silas plays for, stop me from jumping. I'll put away all those feelings I had years before and ignore the fact that he was one of the people who was supposed to be looking out for me after the worst day of my life and instead walked away as if I meant nothing.

All of that's in the past, right? Wrong. There's not hiding anything when it comes to Silas Briggs and he might just be the thing that breaks me. The question is... will the ride have been worth it?
