In
GAME CHANGER, Sasha Roberts is trying to do the impossible. Be the first female
player in Major League Baseball. She's all about keeping her head in the game,
until she looks across the diamond and sees Brooks Davison staring back at her.
Sasha's had a crush on him for so long, but now that they're teammates on the
New York Kings there's a whole lot more standing in their way than just her
overprotective brother, Kyle, who still doesn't want his best friend anywhere
near his little sister.
1. Any
Man of Mine by Shania Twain
Sasha
is a strong, independent woman, not afraid to lay down the law when it comes to
telling Brooks what she wants.
2. No
Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems by Kenny Chesney
Sasha
is trying to go with the flow and enjoy her time playing for the Kings, but her
life gets so crazy—between brawls, beanings, and wanting to be with Brooks
—that sometimes it's hard for her to remember that. This song brings her right
back to her happy place, to that time in Jamaica where she first kissed Brooks.
3.
Don't You Wanna Stay by Jason Aldean featuring Kelly Clarkson
Brooks
is told by the Kings' higher ups that Sasha is off limits, but at a honky tonk
down in the heart of Texas he can't keep his hands off her once the band starts
playing this song.
4. Roar
by Katy Perry
The
Kings Stadium crowd goes nuts whenever this one hits the speakers because it
means Sasha's working the count in a crucial situation. They love how she's has
"the eye of the tiger" when it comes to doing everything she can to
get on base.
5. It's
a Hard-Knock Life from Annie
Sasha's
nickname for Brooks is Sandy, a play on his middle name, Sanderson. Brooks
likes that she's the only who calls him that, but he teases her for naming him
after the dog in Annie and that it's a dealbreaker if she starts singing
this song.
6.
Amazed by Lonestar
Sasha
looks at the relationship that starting pitcher, Mike Landry has with his wife,
Julie and she hopes that one day she can have the same thing with Brooks.
***This is also Mike and Julie's wedding song.
7. Save
a Horse, Ride a Cowboy by Big and Rich
Brooks
dedicates his performance in the postseason to Kyle including this as his
walk-up song whenever he comes to the plate. It reminds him of how he was there
when Kyle met his wife, Casey, after falling at her feet when he was thrown
from a mechanical bull.

Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy by Big and Rich
Blurb
Young, rich, and unaware of how seriously hot he is, Brooks Davison is
tearing it up as the latest shortstop for the New York Kings, despite his
tendency to blush whenever girls scream his name.
When a health scare forces his best friend, Kyle Roberts, off the team,
no one can stomach the thought of replacing him, especially so close to the
playoffs.
Until Kyle's sister, Sasha, steps in, convincing management to let her take
his place. The idea of signing the first female player in Major League history
proves too tempting for the Kings to resist.
Nevertheless, Brooks doesn't want any part of it. Sasha is Kyle's little
sister, not some sideshow.
Yet when Kyle takes a turn for the worse, Brooks promises to do
everything in his power to help Sasha win a championship for him. Because
there's no way he's letting either of them down. Not now, not ever.

Author Info
Collette
West grew up as somewhat of a jock-nerd hybrid. Entering the world three weeks
premature, her dad nearly missed her birth because he had seats behind the
dugout for a sold-out, highly-anticipated match-up between two of baseball's
biggest rivals. Not to be outdone, her book-loving mom taught her how to read
by the time she was three. A love of the game coupled with an appreciation for
the written word were instilled in Collette's impressionable brain from a young
age. No wonder her characters believe in the philosophy: sports + romance = a
little slice of heaven.
Splitting
her time between the Pocono Mountains and Manhattan, Collette indulges her
inner fangirl by going to as many games as she can from hockey to baseball and
downloading every sports romance novel in existence onto her iPad. When she's
not clicking away on her laptop, she enjoys walking her dog in Central Park, satisfying
her caffeine craving at the Starbucks on Broadway and keeping an eye out for
Mr. Right. But above all, she loves dishing with her readers. Email her at collette_west@yahoo.com
She
is the author of NIGHT GAMES and GAME CHANGER.
