I had the perfect bachelor's life.

No obligations. 

No commitments.

The greatest job in the world, all while being paid millions to do it.

Until I became a dad overnight.

My world turned upside down, 

I went from ballfields and bars to dirty diapers and bottles. 

I turned to my best friend for help but ended up with his little sister.

Now, all I want is the one woman I can't have.

She's the curveball I never saw coming.

The one woman I'm willing to commit to and change my old ways for.

I just have to show her that we can be a family.

Indianapolis was my fresh start.

A new place near my family. 

When my brother's best friend ended up with a surprise baby dropped on his doorstep,

I was the perfect nanny for the job.

Everything was falling into place,

If only I could keep my mind and hands off the playboy baller dad.

Working for someone you are attracted to is hard.

But when he's your brother's best friend and you live with him?

Talk about impossible.

Fatherhood changed him, but is it enough to give us a chance at a happily ever after?

The sound of the gavel crashing down, 
Has my life flashing before my eyes. 

Learning to play ball. 
Falling in love, 
Marrying an incredible woman and starting a family
Becoming a starting pitcher for the Indianapolis Lightning. 

Everything I ever wanted... Until I struck out. 

The same success that gave me the life I dreamed of, 
Took it all away. 
I'd do anything for a second chance, 
Even throw the perfect pitch.

A signature on a piece of paper...
It binds you to someone, or it can tear them away. 

It broke my heart to file the papers. 
Gutted me to sign them. 
But this isn't the life I envisioned.
Tired of competing to be his number one priority,
I had to walk away from the man I loved.
I needed to be strong for our girls, for me.

Life goes on.
People can change. 
Now he wants a second chance. 
But can I forgive the man who threw it all away, and trust that he won’t do it again?

The one word I didn’t think I’d have to accept so soon—retirement.

Never playing again was my new reality, along with all the other symptoms that came along with my career-ending injury. 

Just as I'm learning to deal with my new normal, life throws me another challenge, but this one might just be the game-changer that alters my life for the better. 

Jill

I've always been focused. School. Graduation. Opening my own business. 

I didn't see myself settling down anytime soon, I had an empire to build. 

I definitely didn’t expect a newly retired hockey player would bulldoze his way into my life. 

Maybe it's time I focus on more than just my business.

The more time we spend together, the more I realize I can have more than one focus. 

Sometimes, when one chapter closes, it makes room for another…

When rumors start circling,

Do you walk the other way?

Or give them something to talk about?

She was the one I always secretly wanted

But it was never meant to be,

I landed myself in the friend zone.

He was my high-school crush,

Who grew up into the single sexy dad,

Putting his life on the line with every fire he fought.

One spin around the dance floor has our friends talking,

Wondering if we could get any closer.

We blew the rumors off until one day, we really gave them something to talk about.
