Memory Lane

by Brooklyn Bailey

They both have big goals. But will an unplanned baby derail their futures?

Madison craves so much more out of life. Counting down the days until she leaves for college, the eighteen-year-old dreamer is ready to escape her alcoholic mother and small-town nosiness. But wanting her first time to be with someone she trusts, she approaches her best guy friend with a sexy farewell proposition.

Hamilton’s excited for the next chapter. Drafted to MLB to start in the minor leagues, he treasures his one special night with his favorite girl as a fond send-off. And unwilling to let it become a final goodbye, he savors each word of their many texts and video calls to stay connected.

Her stomach dropping when she finds out she’s pregnant, Madison scrambles for a way to keep it secret from their tight-knit circle, continue her longed-for education, and not destroy her bestie’s promising baseball career. But though Hamilton is confused by her sudden distance, he discovers a desire for something deeper than friendship.

Will they open their hearts to each other, or will hard choices push them apart?

Memory Lane is the emotional first book in The Country Roads New Adult sports romance series. If you like fun casts of characters, coming-of-age drama, and slow-burn relationships, then you’ll love Brooklyn Bailey's beautiful beginning.

About the author

Brooklyn Bailey’s writing is a life-long dream coming to fruition. Brooklyn’s under five-foot, fun-size stature houses a full-size attitude. Her uber-competitiveness in all things entertains, frustrates, and challenges family and friends.

As she continues to write sweet romance and young adult books, she also writes steamy contemporary romance books under the name Haley Rhoades, as well as children’s books under the name Gretchen Stephens.

Brooklyn’s guilty pleasures are Lifetime and Hallmark movies, especially Christmas movies. Her other loves include all things peanut butter, Star Wars, mathematics, and travel. Past day jobs vary tremendously from a radio station DJ, to an elementary special-education para-professional, to a YMCA sports director, to a retail store accounting department, and finally a high school mathematics teacher.

Brooklyn resides with her husband and fur-baby in the Des Moines area. This Missouri-born girl enjoys the diversity the Midwest offers.

This was Hamilton & Madison’s story. Hamilton’s excited for the next chapter. Drafted to the MLB to start in the minor leagues, he treasures his one special night with his favorite girl as a fond send-off. And unwilling to let it become a final goodbye, he savors each word of their many texts and video calls to stay connected. It was an intriguing read. And am voluntarily leaving my review.

Group of 9 m/f close friends graduate high school and continue their lives. Some are paired off.Focuses mainly on two that leave town. One for college, the other to live their dream. Secrets are kept, lies are told. How will everyone react when the truth comes out? I wish I had known this was a to be continued type book....
