Pros & Cons
Pros
Loved this m/m sports romance by the very talented ms. Blakely. Lauren isn't only my rom-com queen but becoming the m/m queen of romance. Thank you lauren for not making us wait too long.
Grant blackwood is a rookie catcher for the new york yankees. He has a crush on a teammate who is also a rookie.

This book dives into so much background as to why the characters are who they are. We see where grant and declan met and how their relationship develops. Grant's sweet personality and sassy mouth make him irresistible to declan.
The cover of this one is not only incredibly accurate in picturing declan, the veteran openly gay shortstop for the san francisco team who is instantly in * with the rookie catcher grant. Declan is grant's crush and he has admired him from afar.
Cons
The plot is threadbare. The ending is a joke. The book has a misleading cliffhanger.
