Hard Hit: San Antonio Armadillos Series Book 1

By Kelly Luinstra

Amelia "Millie" James knows about survival. After a life-altering diagnosis derailed her plans in law school, she traded the cutthroat boardrooms of Boston for a fresh start as in-house counsel for the San Antonio Armadillos. She wanted a quieter life where she could manage her epilepsy with her loyal service dog, Waffles, by her side. What she didn't plan on was running straight into the past she left behind: Drew Callahan, the Armadillos' stoic team captain and the college sweetheart she walked away from ten years ago.

Drew Callahan has spent a decade hardening his heart and pouring everything into the game. He's the team's rock, a leader respected for his grit and integrity. But when a routine drug test after a brutal rivalry match returns positive for a banned steroid, Drew's impeccable reputation-and his entire career-are instantly shattered.

With an indefinite suspension looming and the league out for blood, Drew has no choice but to trust the one woman who destroyed him. Convinced he was sabotaged, Millie steps into the line of fire to defend him. As they race to uncover a conspiracy involving poisonous rivalries and dirty money, the icy walls between them begin to melt. But with the pressure mounting and Millie's own health on the line, they must decide if a second chance at love is worth the ultimate risk.

Hard Hit is a story of resilience, redemption, and the unbreakable bond between a captain and his counselor.
