The Run Home

As a former professional baseball star, I'm thrown a curveball when my estranged teenage daughter lands on my doorstep during her senior year. Fresh into retirement and back in my small hometown of Blueball, I'm striking out at parenthood and desperate for coaching. Enter Shae Fletcher—once the girl next door I protected, now my daughter's sharp-tongued volleyball coach who seems to have a personal vendetta against me. Heated exchanges mask an undeniable chemistry that eventually ignites into secret late-night encounters. But my game plan changes completely when Shae announces she's pregnant. Now I'm facing my biggest challenge yet: proving I can be the father I never was the first time around, while convincing the fiery woman carrying my child that what we have might be worth keeping. Can an athlete who's used to adoring crowds win over the two toughest hearts in town—my daughter's and the woman I'm falling for?
