"Tessa Bailey is the undisputed queen of sexy romcoms, and never ever disappoints!" -- Ali Hazelwood, # 1 New York Times bestselling author "Tessa Bailey is in a league of her own. She has mastered the perfect balance of heart, hilarity, and of course, heat. Elijah and Addison are such a special duo--built on snark, sweetness, and a genuine friendship. Beat for beat, Getaway Girl , is pure romance perfection." -- Lyla Sage, New York Times Bestselling Author of Lost and Lassoed "Tessa Bailey is the queen of rom-coms. Long may she reign!" -- Julie Murphy, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Merry Little Meet Cute "Nothing makes my heart catch fire like a Tessa Bailey book. She is all things magic and dirty talk." -- Elena Armas, New York Times bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception "Bailey writes banter and rom-com scenarios with aplomb, but for those who like their romance on the spicier side, she''s also the Michelangelo of dirty talk. She wields filth like Da Vinci does a paintbrush, and there''s a lot to be said for an author who can fill such exchanges with all the requisite heat, enthusiastic consent, and yes, even humor, of such a scenario without veering into corny territory." -- Entertainment Weekly
Summary
#1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey is back with an all-new marriage of convenience, friends-to-lovers sports romance about a baseball catcher and the burlesque club owner he can’t get out of his head.
Madden Donahue, the newest catcher for the Yankees, has been in love with Eve Mitchell since high school, but for some mysterious reason, the burlesque club owner always turns him down. That never stopped him from being her self-appointed protector. Case in point, now that Eve’s sister has left Eve with her two children indefinitely, Madden steps in with a proposition—marry him for the much needed health benefits.
Eve has secretly harbored feelings for Madden all along, but there’s one problem—her best friend Skylar called dibs on him when they were fourteen. Eve has always put their friendship above all else, and she’s not willing to risk losing Skylar over a man. Raised by the local strip club owner, Eve is woefully short on friends and treasures the ones she has. But with Skylar happily paired off, Eve finds herself accepting Madden’s proposal—on the condition that their marriage remains strictly private. She’s not about to let her unique profession and maligned reputation destroy Madden’s shiny new career.
Madden won’t let Eve get away that easily, though. What starts as a marriage of convenience soon ignites into something much hotter, and now it’s up to Madden to convince Eve that their connection is far more than a business arrangement. As the passion builds, can their fake marriage become the real deal?
