The Perfect Game by J. Sterling

He's a game she never intended to play. And she's the game changer he never knew he needed. The Perfect Game tells the story of college juniors, Cassie Andrews and Jack Carter. When Cassie meets rising baseball hopeful Jack, she is determined to steer clear of him and his typical cocky attitude. But Jack has other things on his mind . . . like getting Cassie to give him the time of day. They are damaged, filled with mistrust and guarded before they find one another (and themselves) in this emotional journey about love and forgiveness. Strap yourselves for a ride that will not only break your heart, but put it back together. Sometimes life gets ugly before it gets beautiful...
 
 
My Thoughts:
2/5 Stars
 
 A lot of people recommended this book to me, but in the end, it wasn't for me.
 
I enjoyed the beginning. It was a sexy game of cat and mouse. Jack was dominant and persistent. I think every woman would probably find him attractive. Once they got together though, the story just went downhill. At first, everything was great. They couldn't keep their hands off of each other and romance was in the air. When Jack leaves to go play baseball though, things change. He does things that are unforgettable and do you know what she does? .... She takes him back. How does a strong woman turn into a weak one? I will never know, but I couldn't believe she gave in after everything he did to her.
 
While this book wasn't for me ... It could be right up your alley.
 
Please keep in mind: Most of the book is based around Baseball (practice, games, the draft, leaving home to play, and so on) Also, there is cheating in this book and the worst kind.....

Room For You by Beth Ehemann Review

Four years ago, my dreams were shattered in an instant.

I tried to pick up the pieces and glue them back together the best I knew how, but something was always missing.

A father for my two girls.

But then, Brody Murphy landed on my doorstep, literally. He was a carefree, playful hockey player who barged into my life and messed with my head. He left me more confused than I had ever been.

What if the one thing I thought I needed was the only thing holding me back?


 
 
My Thoughts:
5/5 Stars!
 
What happens when the one thing you know walks out leaving
you with two daughters and an empty heart?
 

Kacie spends all of her time being a mom and helping run an Inn with her mother. When sexy pro hockey player Brody walks in looking for a room her life is turned upside down. He is good looking, charming, and great with her girls. She wants to leave him into her heart, but he will have to break down her guard to earn her love.
 
Together they embark on a journey of second chances and romance.
 
This book sucks you from page one and has you begging for more at the end. The writing is great and the storyline is packed with plot.
 
There is tons of suspense at the end, that I didn't expect. It made me fall hard for Brody and had me pushing for a Happily Ever After.
 
I can't wait to pick up book 2!
