Wearing an expensive suit and an air of bored calm, Graham Reed looks like a fish out of water at the ballpark. Even after enthusiastic fan Elaine Simpson soaks him with cold soda, he manages to keep his cool. Hot and bothered by this sexy stranger with broad shoulders and smoldering eyes, the perky schoolteacher insists on cleaning his suit. When he shows up at her door, Elaine realizes that the game has just begun.

The busy owner of a successful pizza chain, Graham can't get the memory of kissing pretty, down-to-earth Elaine out of his head. But it's clear her teenage son hates him, and his own batting average when it comes to long-term relationships isn't impressive. So is he in or is he out? Only his heart has the answer-and he's putting it all into winning Elaine in a game called love.
