Book Description
Guidare la sua costosa, nuova auto da Los Angeles a New York fa partire il motore di Jake Lawrence. Il terzo difensore percorre l’autostrada, pronto per l’avventura. Totalmente al verde dopo che sua madre ha perso tutti i suoi soldi al gioco, Kate MacKenzie, un’aspirante attrice di teatro, esce di soppiatto dalla sua camera di motel. Bloccata nel bel mezzo del nulla con meno di quattro dollari in tasca, la coraggiosa attrice non sa come arrivare alla sua audizione a Broadway. Tutelando la sua bellezza dall’aggressione del proprietario del motel, Jake offre a Kate un passaggio fino a Manhattan. Kate accetta. Per mantenere la sua dignità, cerca di tenere a distanza quel ragazzo sexy. Ma è più facile a dirsi che a farsi. L’attrazione reciproca non allontana comunque i due dai propri obiettivi. Il sogno di Kate di arrivare a Broadway contrasta con quello di Jake di arrivare alle World Series. Il loro viaggio li porterà verso l’amore? Oppure a un’esistenza solitaria di separazione e insicurezza?
