Produktbeschreibung
When Robert was forced to walk away from his dream of playing pro baseball, it looked like he was destined to return to his Idaho family's potato farm. To hear him tell the story, it was thanks to a persuasive friend that he took a detour through a California beach town. Working as a custodian and bartender, he was soon befriended by attractive women, local business owners, undercover Federal agents, and a cartel boss. In his naïveté he was unprepared for the complicated backgrounds his new friends embodied and the baggage they bore, and he got tangled up in all of their problems. His loyalties were true, but his luck arced back and forth like a pendulum. He'd need everything to go his way to rescue the damsels and avoid the potato fields that lurked in his future if he failed.
