Batter Up Pucker Up: A Little League Collection, #1

By Chrissy Wissler

For many young women, high school softball opens doors to a greater future. College, scholarships, professional sports.

The dream for so many...

But not for all.

From overbearing fathers to the big college decision, each story in this collection focuses on the heart, and the courage needed to follow your dreams. And just maybe, a spark of romance along the way. Included are "Prom Dates & Softball Bats," "Throw Like a Girl, Catch a Date," "Fly Away," "No Crying in Softball," and "More to Life than Softball."
