Easton Wylder is baseball royalty. The game is his life. His passion. His everything.
So, when an injury threatens to end Easton’s season early, the team calls in the renowned physical therapist, Doc Dalton, to oversee his recovery. Except it’s not Doc who greets Easton for his first session, but rather his daughter, Scout. She may be feisty, athletic, defiant, and gorgeous, but Easton is left questioning whether she has what it takes to help him.
Scout Dalton’s out to prove a female can handle the pressure of running the physical therapy regimen of an MLB club. And that proof comes in the form of getting phenom Easton Wylder back on the field. But getting him healthy means being hands-on.
And with a man as irresistible as Easton, being hands-on can only lead to one thing, trouble. Because the more she touches him, the more she wants him, and she can’t want him. Not when it’s her job to side in the club’s best interest if he’s ready to play.
But when sparks fly and fine lines are crossed, can they withstand the heat or is one of them bound to get burned?
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PLAYER!
I loved the way that baseball was so accurately described. There are so many times that I can’t read a baseball romance because the author clearly didn’t know anything about the sport, but thank goodness that was NOT the case here!
I loved how damn persistent Easton was and how he fought for exactly what he wanted!
“There’s no need for me to see what’s out there when it’s green beneath my feet.”
I loved Scout even though she was infuriatingly stubborn! Gah.. she made me want to shake her at times!
“The worst part about telling yourself lies is you know the real truth.”
There are so so so many things I want to say about this book… I just can’t it would ruin the book for you and I really just can’t do that to you! But, do be aware that there is a cliffhanger! I had a feeling that I knew what it was going to be well… I had two things in my head, one thing I hoped for and one thing that I just knew it would be… and since it wasn’t what I hoped and I figured it out I’m going to have to knock this story down to four stars. It was very well-written and the characters were well developed and I want nothing more for everyone to be happy at the end of the next book, but all of the scenarios running through my head are kind of terrifying and make me very anxious!
