What's an injured catcher to do when spring training starts without him? Losing himself in the decadence of Mardi Gras seems like a good start.

Tag Gentry has a secret: his leg injury is so bad, it could destroy his baseball career. He's more than ready to drown his troubles at a Mardi Gras house party, but New Orleans holds more trouble than he could have guessed, including his nosy journalist ex.

Skye Schuyler's catering job with the Columbia Gems is in limbo, and the Mardi Gras gig can keep her afloat. She never expected to find her hot baseball paramour in residence. Their second chance morphs into a fake relationship to fool his ex, but their shot at love is in danger, and so are they.

Blackmail and revenge aren't part of Tag's healing regime, but whoever lured him to New Orleans didn't get the memo.
