Lisa Collins enjoys a fulfilling career as a sportswriter for a minor league baseball team, supported by her best friend, Frankie Dunkin. However, her life takes an unexpected turn when Amy Perry arrives, introducing new challenges and complexities to her previously straightforward existence. The story explores themes of friendship, ambition, and the impact of unforeseen relationships.
Life is sweet for star athlete, Amy Perry, who is the only woman playing professional baseball. But not everyone is accepting of an open lesbian on a men's ball team, and Amy finds the harassment hard to take. Thank goodness she's found a fulfilling relationship with Stacy McCrady, and still has the friendship and support of sportswriter Lisa Collins. When personal tragedy strikes, Amy goes into a tailspin, and both her game and her union with Stacy suffer brutal blows. It takes a true team effort to get her back on track in both parts of her life. In Two for the Show, readers are reunited with characters they met in Paynter's Playing for First, and they'll be introduced to several new players who demonstrate why baseball is really just a metaphor for the game of life.
Book Three in the Playing for First baseball series. Continues the ongoing story of Amy Perry, first baseman for a major league baseball team, and Lisa Collins, the sportswriter who covers her story.
