He hit the Spartan. Twice. Now they're teammates.

Cody Hill's first season in the majors is off to a rocky start. Called up after just a few games, he's still getting his bearings on the mound -- until he accidentally pegs Brooklyn Brawlers catcher Leo Papadopoulis at the plate. Then does it again.

Leo, known around the league as the Spartan, doesn't forget and definitely doesn't forgive. He's built like a bull, just as likely to charge, and carries himself with the quiet fury of a man on a mission. He's also just been traded -- to the New England Riders.

Cody's team.

Now the rookie pitcher and the iron-willed catcher have no choice but to work together -- to form a battery, that unbreakable bond between pitcher and catcher. But as the Riders fight for a pennant run, the real tension isn't just on the field. Cody's drawn to Leo's fire and strength. And beneath Leo's armor, Cody sparks something Leo hasn't let himself feel in years.

Leo made a promise to his dying uncle: bring home a championship. But some promises are easier to keep than others -- especially when love is on the line.
