Amy Cummings - 2019
BIG everywhere and in every way. A young and inexperienced college student, assigned to interview him for the university newspaper. Sparks fly when all-star Stone Jacobs meets his sweet Olivia. Stone… “I know I should leave her alone. It’s best to just walk away. I have a hundred and sixty-eight games to play all over the country. I’m under contract. I can’t get distracted by some little college girl. But Olivia isn’t just any girl. She’s the prettiest, sweetest, most innocent and submissive girl I’ve ever met. Something about her awakens all of my daddy instincts. I can’t resist. She shreds all my defenses. I have to be careful, though. She needs to focus on school. She’s worked hard to get where she’s at. She doesn’t need some athlete to derail her plans. Besides, I’m not sure she can handle me. She’s never been with a man. If I’m her first…well, poor girl. I can’t just decimate her and then leave her. I have to stay strong. I must resist.” Olivia… “Stone is the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen. The way he looks in that baseball uniform. The way those muscles ripple just beneath the fabric. Yes, please. Yummy. Surely he doesn’t want me, though. I’m the poor girl from the wrong-side-of-the-tracks. A Plain Jane that all the guys overlook. But there seems to be something to this. He’s protective toward me. Almost paternal. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say loving! One thing I know—Stone is the man of my dreams. I want him to be my first. Even if he has to leave me afterward and we go on with our separate lives, I need Stone Jacobs to take me, to break me in. I need to experience him.” Spring Training is a fast moving, Insta-love romance.

It features consenting adults and contains DDlg themes and light spanking (but is NOT an Age Play, ABDL tale). With plenty of steamy scenes, this one is strictly for ADULTS ONLY.
