This special paperback features gorgeous sprayed edges with stenciled artwork. #1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey is back with an all-new marriage of convenience, friends-to-lovers sports romance about a baseball catcher and the burlesque club owner he can't get out of his head. Madden Donahue, the newest catcher for the Yankees, has been in love with Eve Mitchell since high school, but for some mysterious reason, the burlesque club owner always turns him down. That never stopped him from being her self-appointed protector. Case in point, now that Eve's sister has left Eve with her two children indefinitely, Madden steps in with a proposition--marry him for the much needed health benefits. Eve has secretly harbored feelings for Madden all along, but there's one problem--her best friend Skylar called dibs on him when they were fourteen. Eve has always put their friendship above all else, and she's not willing to risk losing Skylar over a man. Raised by the local strip club owner, Eve is woefully short on friends and treasures the ones she has. But with Skylar happily paired off, Eve finds herself accepting Madden's proposal--on the condition that their marriage remains strictly private. She's not about to let her unique profession and maligned reputation destroy Madden's shiny new career. Madden won't let Eve get away that easily, though. What starts as a marriage of convenience soon ignites into something much hotter, and now it's up to Madden to convince Eve that their connection is far more than a business arrangement. As the passion builds, can their fake marriage become the real deal?

"She made the first move, so I'm all in and ready to play." -Oscar (Oz) Strong Sometimes life gets f&%#ed up. Is it my fault? Usually. I might be a literal genius in biochemistry. I might have made the right choice when I let two of my college chess team buddies talk me into putting my brain and my multiple degrees to work in an unexpected way that has made us ridiculously wealthy. I may be the founding partner who developed our full line of wildly successful, supercharged, pheromone colognes. I might have even been damned smart, coming up with the idea to take our multimillion-dollar company public.But that doesn't mean I make the most intelligent decisions when it comes to my personal life. For instance, I let my parents push me into marriage right after I finished at Columbia. I should've reminded dear old Mom and Dad that their geekster, brainiac son has spent a lot of time at the gym packing on muscle and has learned how to treat a lady, both in and out of bed...so I'm smart enough to pick my own woman. But naw. I married a girl because my parents liked her family's name. A girl who didn't love me but instead loved my trust fund. Now that I think about it, smart people really can be obtuse to the point of idiocy. Which is why falling for my new assistant is not only my biggest f&%# up, but it's also a mistake that could put both of my business partners and our company's future at risk. It's stupid, I know. But then she goes and makes the first move, and fierce competitor that I am, I can't help but rise to the challenge. I'm all in and ready to play by her rules. I just don't realize until it's too late that the only rule to the game she wants to play is seductive, steamy, sexy...and so positively sinful. ABOUT THE CHECKMATE INC.
