Book Description:

**Mature Content Warning** 

This is a New Adult novel recommended for ages 17+ due to language, sexual content, and mature subject matter. 



Photographer Sierra Stratton views the world through a lens all her own. She has an uncanny sense about people, something that often causes her trouble. When she meets the sexy and brooding Evan Dorsey, her intuition tells her he’s suffering, and she wants to be the one to help him. 


Evan isn’t open to help from anyone, however. His focus is on his Major League career and making himself as marketable as possible for his upcoming free agency. He plans to ride out the season in Atlanta and then sign with another team, away from the painful memories that haunt him. 

Someone’s eager to send him on his way, too. Between anonymous threats and equipment sabotage, it’s clear he’s earned himself an enemy along the way. To him, it’s one more sign that he’s right to move on. 


Excerpt from Meant for Her by Raine Thomas


She saw one of the building’s employees, Oliver Werner, sitting behind the counter and crossed the lobby to greet him. He got to his feet, towering over her by more than a foot.


“Hi, Oliver.”


“Hi there, Ms. Sierra. Nice to see you.”


She winked at him. “This is Evan Dorsey. He’s checking out 4-B.”


“Is that right?” Oliver held out his hand and Evan shook it. “Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Dorsey. Can’t find a better place to live in this city, I assure you. We’ll take real good care of you here.”


“I like what I see so far,” Evan said.


Sierra wondered if it was a coincidence that his dark blue eyes shifted to her after he said that. In either case, her pulse quickened.


What harm could there be in fantasizing about a compliment from a hot ballplayer? It was healthy, really.


“Thanks, Oliver. We’ll be down in a bit.”


They headed to the elevator. She punched a code into the keypad to the right of the doors. As they closed, she looked at Evan to explain what she’d done. He was staring at her. She expected him to look away when she caught him.


He didn’t.


“When you’ve signed the lease, you’ll get your own code,” she said.


When I sign it?”


She smiled. He might not have made up his mind about moving in just yet, but she already knew how this was going to end.


“There are four apartments each on floors two and three,” she continued as though she hadn’t heard him, “and two larger apartments on four. Only the tenants on each floor can access their floor.”


“Unless they give the code out to everyone they know.”


“Sure. We do change the codes regularly to try and prevent issues, and ask tenants to let us know if there’s any reason they need their personal codes changed. As with most secure buildings shared by multiple tenants, nothing is guaranteed.”


The elevator stopped and the doors opened up into a long hallway with hardwood floors and a vibrant carpet runner. Two large windows along the left side of the hall allowed sunlight to flood in. A few framed black and white photographs of some of the more interesting architectural elements of the complex hung along the right wall. The door to 4-B was straight ahead at the end of the hallway. Halfway there, they passed the door to 4-A on the left.


“Who lives in that apartment?” Evan asked.


She paused as she reached the door to 4-B. “Aunt Caroline didn’t tell you?”


“No.”


“Oh.”


She turned and unlocked the door to 4-B. They walked in, neither of them mentioning that she hadn’t answered his question. She started talking as she moved from room to room, figuring he was listening even if he wasn’t following her.


“As you can see, this apartment has lots of character and natural light. It’s over seventeen hundred square feet and has two large bedrooms, two full baths. Separate laundry. The kitchen has been completely updated with granite and stainless steel. Natural hardwood floors throughout. Neutral paint on the walls, but you’re welcome to change it once you move in. There are two real brick walls and exposed ductwork to enhance the loft feel. It’s a very open floorplan with—”


She turned and almost collided with Evan’s chest. Apparently, he had been following her.


“You’re in 4-A, aren’t you?” he asked.


She smiled.


“I’ll take it,” he said.
