Nothing Like The Movies by Lynn Painter

$13.99

Wes Bennett gave up the future he once imagined when family tragedy forced him to return home and take care of his younger sister. Years later, with his sister grown and his mother beginning to recover, he finally has a chance to return to the path he left behind—this time with an opportunity to join UCLA’s baseball program.

That fresh start also puts him back in the same place as Liz Buxbaum, the girl he never truly moved on from. Now working with the university’s athletic department, Liz is focused on protecting the life she has built and avoiding the kind of heartbreak she once promised herself she would never repeat.

As old feelings resurface, their history becomes impossible to ignore. Between second chances, guarded emotions, and the pressure of rebuilding trust, Wes and Liz must decide whether love deserves another shot when life no longer feels anything like the movies.
