Big Shots, Book 4
From the publisher:
#1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey is back with an all-new enemies-to-lovers, fake-dating sports romance about a playboy hockey rookie and the disciplined softball pitcher completely immune to his charms.
Boston Bearcats rookie Robbie Corrigan is living the dream. He’s made it to the NHL, his best friend/teammate and fellow “orgasm donor” is his roomie—and the women of Boston love them both. Life is sweet. That is, until he meets Skylar Paige, division 1 softball pitcher, girl least likely to take anyone’s bull…and the one member of the opposite sex immune to his charms. Robbie might be dazzled by the badass pitcher, but Skylar pegs him as a filthy player and wants nothing to do with him.
When he discovers she’s carrying a serious torch for her brother’s best friend, Robbie knows he should just go back to clubbing and whipped cream bikini parties, but he can’t seem to leave Skylar to flounder on her romantic quest to land another man. Nor can he miss out on the opportunity to spend time with her and hopefully redeem himself. Before Robbie knows it, he’s agreed to be Skylar’s fake boyfriend/love coach at an upcoming family wilderness competition where her crush will be in attendance. What could go wrong?
Through a series of contests that require them to trust each other, Robbie and Skylar grow closer and closer until their fake relationship starts to feel like the realest thing they’ve ever known and the sizzling lessons in sensuality burn out of control.
But it’s all just pretend…right?

Skyla plays softball for her college team, but is also passionate about baseball. So when her brother asks her to pitch in a quirky exhibition game against a team of professional hockey players, she’s all in. The catch? These hockey pros think baseball is a joke, while the baseball players dismiss hockey as nothing more than glorified brawling. Skylar finds herself caught in the middle of this testosterone-fueled turf war.
Things heat up when she overhears one of the hockey players, Robbie, bragging about his latest hookup in crude terms. The comment infuriates her, and just like that, the enemies-to-lovers spark is lit. Robbie, however, is instantly smitten with Skylar, but as someone who’s never committed to anything beyond one-night stands, he’s completely out of his depth when it comes to pursuing a real relationship. Meanwhile, Skylar has been nursing a crush on Madden—her brother’s best friend—for years, though he’s never seen her as anything more than his buddy’s little sister.
Their ultra-competitive family hosts an annual “Olympics,” and this year, Skylar is determined to finally catch Madden’s attention. To pull it off, she recruits none other than Robbie—the loudmouth hockey player—to help her. Robbie jumps at the chance to spend time with her, even if it means helping her win over another guy. The situation becomes even more complicated when Skylar, admitting her limited romantic experience, asks Robbie to teach her about flirting and intimacy. Naturally, he’s more than happy to oblige.
Bailey delivers once again. Eventually, emotions boil over, truths come out, and everyone ends up exactly where they’re meant to be. The journey is packed with humor, heart, and plenty of steam. This series seems to be shifting from hockey to baseball, and I’m totally here for it. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
