Show Description
After hitting the title clinching home run, beloved baseball star Terry Simmons generously offers his nemesis- sports writer Joanne Whitlock- a chance to live her life’s dream. But when Whitlock uncovers Simmon’s long kept secret, she must decide between realizing her dream or destroying the man who can make them happen. He may be a hero to the rest of the world, but to Jo Whitlock, Terry Simmons is just a Problematic Man.
