Remy | 2 comments Ya Romance that I read sometime between 1994 and 2003. Characters are likely in high school. Lead boy plays baseball but injured his arm and for some reason ends up coaching a girl's softball team (I believe). Lead girl has probably never played before and the boy is annoyed and frustrated. I don't remember the in between details, but they start dating somewhere near the end. I have a vague feeling that his name is more common like Brad, Ryan, or something, but can't be certain.

Following up on Short Stop for Romance by Elaine Harper - Becca's suggestion...

Amazon reviewer says: "When she injures him by accident she tries to help solve the problem by joining the ball team that he coaches. The young man is very popular and has many female admirers."

Goodreads description: "Mark Maxwell was the star baseball player and just about the most popular guy in Blossom High. Celia nearly flipped when she found out that her mother had hired him to dog-sit while the Clinton family went off to a family reunion.
She was even more stunned by the unfortunate accident that led to Mark’s job as reluctant coach to the all-girls softball team. She was sure that he held her responsible for putting him out of commission and for the wretched job. How could she convince him otherwise . . . especially now that she found herself falling in love with him?"
