Hart’s Crossing Series Book 3

Ten-year-old Lyssa Sampson loves baseball. She’s on a team with older girls and boys and longs for the new coach, Mel Jenkins, to make her a starting pitcher. He seems nice and her mom, Terri, is lonely. If they started dating, the coach would take more notice of Lyssa’s pitching.

Terri, a single mother, owns a beauty salon and never seems to have enough hours in the day to accomplish everything. The last thing she has time for is a new relationship.

Mel’s heart never mended after his fiancé’s death. Is it time to begin dating again?

Realistic characters make this an enjoyable read. This is the first book I’ve read by this author and will look for more. Nice story.
