Former collegiate athlete Ellie Shaw loves coaching her enthusiastic eight-year-old son, Braden. But balancing three jobs and a five-acre farm doesn't leave much time for anything else, let alone navigating the travel team politics that have frozen out Ellie from having any influence on "the B-team" where her son and his friends have been relegated.
When Colt Gibson, an All-American outfielder from Ellie's rival college, rents the apartment above her barn to escape an NCAA recruiting scandal, he forms a bond with her son while helping to guide Braden's struggling team.
As the B-team improves and begins to challenge the town's A-team for attention and success, the travel team coaches and parents learn of Colt's scandalous past and seek to use it to destroy the B-team by any means necessary. Will they destroy Ellie and Colt's budding romance as well?
Heading for Home is a story about how we find the center of our world through the people and things we love most.
