      'Tenacious, sexy, effervescent, doggedly hopeful, and endlessly charming, with characters to root hard for and an irresistible voice - I completely adored it' Casey McQuiston, author of Red, White and Royal Blue Enemies. Rivals. Teammates. It's going to be a hell of a season.Gene Ionescu is content to play in the minor leagues. He's seen teammates get their big breaks, but as a gay trans man in the world of competitive baseball, he's unlikely to share the same destiny.When Gene's long-time rival, Luis Estrada, is unexpectedly drafted onto Gene's team, everything changes. Luis is standoffish, talented and inconveniently gorgeous, and - to add insult to injury - his arrival puts Gene's role on the pitch in jeopardy. This means war.The two men can barely get through a game together and the whole team suffers. But when Luis surprises Gene with a softer side to his haughty demeanour, Gene offers an olive branch. Soon they discover that their chemistry on the pitch might lead them all the way to the playoffs. And their chemistry off the pitch . . . well, that could be enough to change the game for ever.
