Drive You Wild: A Love Between The Bases Novel - Plot & Excerpts
While Paige chatted with the director of the Boys and Girls Club about the fund-raiser, set to take place right after the championship game, he faced the group of teenagers gathered in the common room. It was a bigger than normal group, which made him a little nervous because of what he had to say. “I owe you guys an apology,” he told them. The kids stopped messing with their cell phones and fixed their eyes on him in fascination. “I’ve been coming in here talking to you like some kind of big shot, but I haven’t been telling you the truth. The truth is, I spent the last three years of high school in juvenile detention. I was scared shitless most of the time. I got into trouble, I fought, I learned some bad habits. You guys know the kind of thing I mean.” “Did you do drugs?” one kid asked. “No.” Keep it real, no matter what. “My father was a drug addict. I know what that’s like, and I hated it. Besides, I had baseball and I had a coach who would have kicked my ass.”
