About this ebook
Jenny, like any good pitcher, knows when to throw at a batter. When to throw a fastball. And when to drop and cover.
Like now.
Especially as big, meaty Lacey glares at her. Hands the size of bear paws, and the entire softball team saying in pretty clear words:
Go. Home.
The short story that inspired the novel, "Swing Away." A story of friendship, finding your own place, and just maybe, a date to the prom.
