Grand Slam Romance 2: Major League Hotties
By Emma Oosterhous & Ollie Hicks | Hardcover
The second graphic novel in the Grand Slam Romance series, Major League Hotties brings Mickey, Astra, and Wolfgang together again, but now they’re in a different league—the magical kind!
Astra and Mickey are celebrating the Belle City Broads’s epic victory over their archrivals the Gaiety Gals, but the party is cut short when their nemesis Jasmine Von Schitz reveals the shocking truth: now that Mickey’s magical girl powers have been revealed, they can’t play softball until they obtain a Magical Girl license! Too bad there’s only one place to get it: the Magical Girl DMV in Berlin!
Mickey and Astra are in for the Euro-trip of their lives, navigating the Magical Girl League, their own steamy situationship, and a prickly reunion with the hottie whose heart they both broke: Wolfgang Konigin. For Mickey to get their license and for Astra to renew hers, they’ll have to intern for the Berlin Grinders, and only a successful season and a glowing recommendation from their captain will get them there. Too bad that captain is Wolfgang and not all their new teammates want to see the rookies score.
A delightfully madcap romp filled with spellbinding softball, shady exes, and sexy shenanigans, Major League Hotties is another home run in the Grand Slam series from creative team Ollie Hicks and Emma Oosterhous.
