BLURB
Besides her family, Lacey
Robinson’s only other love is baseball. She’s on top of the world when Arizona State University approaches her to discuss a scholarship. To be
the first girl ever to grace a college boys’ team is beyond what she has ever
dreamed.
Her fastball is
impeccable, her curveball equally as good, and her slider annihilates anyone
who dares to step in the batter’s box. But fate has its own way of throwing
curveballs. When she loses her mother and sister to a home invasion, baseball
and her dreams die with them. Tragedy has a way of seeping deep into her
psyche, causing nightmares, panic attacks and blackouts. Diagnosed with Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder, her psychiatrist recommends a change of scenery and
picking up the things that she loved to do, and for Lacey that is baseball.
After a move clear
across the country, only two things matter to Lacey—overcome her PTSD and make
Kensington High’s baseball team. But trying out for the team comes with
obstacles—the captain, Aaron Seever, doesn’t want a girl on the team.
Her life is further
complicated when she meets Kade Maxwell, a tall, sexy and drool-worthy bad boy
who has a magical touch that awakens her feminine side and a kiss that slowly
erases her nightmares. But getting involved with him may be dangerous when
Kade’s archenemy returns to town to settle a vendetta.
To complicate
matters, her PTSD has taken a turn for the worse. She has to find a way to heal
otherwise she may not have a chance at anything in life, especially love.
This is a New Adult
Novel and contains strong language and sexual content. Intended for audiences
age 17+
REVIEW
I
received a copy from the author in exchange for a honest review.
5*
read.
Sometimes
you come across a talented author that you've never read anything by before yet
you fall in love with their writing style and characters, this was the case
with this book. I actually had to take a step back after reading it before writing this review as I was so excited and entrapped with this book
that I had a complete book hangover after it and if I'd wrote my review straight
away it would have just been full of rambles that no one could understand. There
was so much emotion that I needed to step back before writing the review so that's what i did. This
author did an amazing job at highlighting a difficult subject with the PTSD
side and did it in a very emotional but sensitive way.
Lacey
is the main female lead in this book. Her and her dad have moved across the
country for a fresh start after loosing her mother and sister. This is also why
Lacey has PTSD and that is explained and looked into in this book in a
sensitive but beautiful way. Kade is the cocky arrogant bad boy who also has
his share of problems. They both meet and from that first encounter you could
feel the chemistry and spark between them both. I think my favourite part was
when Lacey and Kade first met in the parking lot. I loved it and knew straight
away that I was going to fall in love with both characters and especially Kade.
This was the moment I fell in love with the cocky sexy Kade and I was excited
to see what else he was going to bring to the story. And what's even better is there's
not just Kade, he also has brothers, the sexy triplets Kross, Kelton and Kody. I loved the
bond and relationship between the brothers and I cant wait to see where their
stories will lead to in future books.
I loved this book and I have read the next book so
will be reviewing that one too. I cant wait for more in this series and look
forward to seeing what else this author comes up with.
