The game has always come first
Jayson LeBec couldn’t be the champion Scout Baker needed when he walked away without her years ago. But seeing her grief over the death of her father—the legendary baseball coach they both idolized—Jayson’s now ready to step up to the plate.
On the fast track to tanking her career and her reputation, Scout’s in trouble. And while she’ll agree to ex-sex with Jayson and nothing more, what she really needs is a friend. If only she’d let him be that! Because the only game plan he’s ever had is “Love Scout...”
“There are no sides here, Scout.”
“Yes there are. Mine and theirs. You knew that, you knew that better than anyone and now you’re choosing their side. Great, just great!”
He could see the tears in her eyes and the hysteria that was building. In two steps he was in front of her, his hands around her upper arms, shaking her a little and forcing her to look at him.
“Scout, I’m here for you. For you. And I’m not going anywhere. Got it?”
She looked at him then, right into his eyes. As though she was seeing straight through to his soul, really, for the first time.
“Until you leave me again. Yeah,” she said, pulling away from him. “I got it.”
There it was, Jayson thought. The final second of their time-out just ticked on the clock.
The past was back.
Hopefully, if you are reading Scout’s Honor, you had the chance to read The Comeback of Roy Walker as the first book in the series. When writing that book I truly fell in love with the somewhat prickly younger sister named Scout.
Then of course there was Scout’s relationship with her father and the man she once loved that she could never quite get over.
I was so excited to write this story and I hope I did right by both Scout and Jayson. This is a story of love and grief and finding a way to start over again even when everything seems lost. It’s one of my personal favorites.
I love to hear from readers, so if you do enjoy this story you can let me know at www.stephaniedoyle.net or on Twitter, @StephDoyleRW.
