Baseball was all Andy Cantrell cared about growing up. So, when he reared identical twin daughters after their mother’s untimely death, he wanted them to be championship softball players. The girls looked and sounded the same, but that was all. He taught the patient sister how to pitch and the wild sister to play second base. He had them practice a most difficult play, the pitcher to second to first double play thousands and thousands of times with a neighbor boy playing first base. The play came up in a game leading to the national college championship. Make it and they would advance to the final game. The wild sister, through no fault of her own, made an error and the game was lost. She blamed herself for the loss and suffered the wrath of the patient sister.
Their father died from a weak heart after the game. The wild sister became a hermit and took over the family farm. Years later, the sisters reunited only to have the patient sister also die from a weak heart. The wild sister decided to secretly take her place, raise her children including two identical twin girls, coach and strive for retribution through softball. All through the years, the neighbor boy who had become a sheriff, was by her side. She knew he knew what she was doing but never blew the whistle.
The journey was never easy, and she told it all in her diary.

Store description
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.

There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
