Camille Running away from my duties as a Princess and hiding from my family here at RLU might have been the scariest things I’ve done But, working in close proximity with the guy I’ve had a crush on for the last three years? That feels terrifying. Ryker is my opposite in every way, yet every time we’re in the same room We’re drawn to one another despite all the reasons we shouldn’t It’s a game we’re set up to lose, but I find myself wanting to play it anyway. Ryker All my life, my only focus was baseball. No parties, no friends. Not even love. It was baseball and I, till the very end. Until she worked her way under my skin and I’m terrified to face it. Camille is everything I’m not but I find myself unable to deny the attraction and chemistry we have when she starts working for the baseball team. Falling for her is like being up to bat with a full count, But, this time, instead of running, I’ll swing with all I’ve got to hit a home run.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. The FMC, Camille, was fun, sweet, and someone I would genuinely be friends with irl. The MMC, Ryker, was grumpy, outwardly reserved with his feelings, but eventually soft just for her.
It’s not a super in-depth read, and I actually really liked that. Some people will probably dig into the fact that a couple huge truths were just accepted by everyone and never really brought back up again, but I don’t feel like I’m missing anything at the end of it. Would I have loved a couple more conversations about it? Probably. Am I mad that they’re not there? Nope.
The story was pretty light and spicy overall and I’m looking forward to reading the two that came before it when I need a breather between heavier books.
I also liked that this is truly a standalone. I decided to wait on reading the first two to see if I was left confused about other characters, but Carlie gives just enough background for everyone that you’re not sitting there with extra questions taking away from the book itself.
Happy I read this and looking forward to more.
As a baseball girly, thank you!!
I loved Ryker from the minute she saw him outside the bar. The instant protectiveness over someone he didn't even know had me swooning. Add in the fact that he plays baseball and his character description reminds me of my husband, I knew he was a keeper.
The spice in this was SO GOOD. Also, can we talk about the mouth that CAMILLE has on her too??? I was not expecting that but I was also NOT disappointed at all.
Don't even get me started on the "my wife" part either because I am all about the possessiveness.
