Ivory Crenshaw is Hollywoodβs Sweetheart. After years of playing by the rules, she is finally getting her shot at writing and directing. Unfortunately, a pandemic outbreak leaves Ivoryβs project on the cutting room floor. Her friend convinces Ivory to take a short vacation to Belize to reset and figure out what is next. Only, the borders close and Ivory is now stranded in Belize with no indication of when she will be able to return home.
Thankfully, she is not alone.
Preston Fields is a veteran second baseman in the majors. When the pandemic cancels Spring Training and postpones the start of the 2020 season, Preston jets off to Belize for a few days to feed his adventure bone. He doesnβt expect to get stranded in a foreign country putting his career in jeopardy, especially not with his Coachβs daughter and Hollywoodβs Sweetheart.
These two unlikely companions decide to brave the chaos together, beginning a whirlwind adventure across the islands and jungles of Belize. Adventure isnβt the only thing that finds them as they embark on a journey of self discovery, evaluation of what is truly important, and ultimately love.
Will Ivory and Preston be left Stranded on Second or will they make it home and score their happily ever after?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars
T. Leigh Turner is a new-to-me author, and I’m so glad I got to read Stranded on Second! It was quite an entertaining story between baseball star Preston and Hollywood’s Sweetheart Ivory, an actress who happens to be the daughter of his coach.
In the days before the global pandemic shut down the world, Preston and Ivory both take a trip to a remote resort in Belize, each needing an escape from their daily lives. They cross paths at the resort bar and there is an instant attraction, but they just say farewell and call it a night. But as they keep running into each other, they strike up a bit of a friendship⦠and that grows even more as the pandemic spreads and they are forced to leave the resort and take shelter at a private villa until they can fly back home to the U.S.
I loved the connection between Preston and Ivory! I loved the setting of this story and how they were in this idyllic bubble. Preston was such a cinnamon roll, and I loved how attentive and supportive he was of Ivory… especially when she was hesitant to pursue something. He was just so patient! Sigh. And Swoon. I really liked getting to know vulnerable, insecure Ivory, the side she showed Preston that the rest of the world didn’t see behind her Hollywood’s Sweetheart facade.
Stranded on Second was swoony, charming, romantic… It was so well-written and I enjoyed all the big and small moments between Preston and Ivory!
i received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
