IN HER OWN LEAGUE by Liz Tomforde

In Her Own League by Liz Tomforde is a high-stakes, workplace romance that explores the power dynamics and personal tensions within the world of Major League Baseball. The story follows Reese Remington, who has just become the first female team owner in the league. Despite her immense preparation and qualifications, she faces intense public scrutiny and skepticism, forcing her to maintain an impenetrable, professional facade to prove her legitimacy in a male-dominated industry.

Her primary challenge arrives in the form of Emmett Montgomery, the team’s field manager and a former All-Star, who is accustomed to running things his own way. Emmett initially views Reese as an ice-cold, business-focused adversary who threatens the culture he has built with his players. However, as the demands of the baseball season require them to work in close proximity during long stretches of travel, Emmett begins to see the vulnerability and ambition hidden beneath Reese’s controlled exterior.

As their professional interactions shift into heated banter and undeniable chemistry, they find themselves struggling to maintain boundaries. Reese faces the difficult choice of protecting her hard-earned career and the reputation of the team by keeping Emmett at a distance, or succumbing to a connection that could jeopardize the professional stability she has fought so hard to achieve. It is a story of professional pressure, mutual respect, and the inevitable collision between ambition and desire.
