The Knockback

Book excerpt: It's called a knockback, not a knockout. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back in the ring… He is going to be a major league star one day, and he knows it. Incredibly popular with students and staff, even while quiet and reserved, Gavin Freeman is the kind of guy that everyone thinks lives the best kind of charmed life. But while his childhood haunts him and his parents eagerly try to siphon money away from him, Gavin puts on a brave face and plays the role everyone expects of him in the quiet Georgia college where he is the star of their competitive baseball team. When he meets a girl named Star, who becomes the focus of his intense attraction, he finds an unlikely wingman in her roommate, softball player Lila. If he can help her with her grades, she will help him get into Star's orbit. The only problem is, Gavin might be finding himself enjoying Lila's company more than he expected, and their friendship is getting dangerously strong.
