Double Play by Ranee' S. Clark

 


Official Summary:
Sophie Pope is devastated when she hears the news: her former boyfriend, college football star Anthony “Rocket” Rogers, is engaged to be married. Determined to win him back before he says “I do,” Sophie hatches a foolproof plan to stop the wedding. But when Rocket’s best man, aspiring baseball player David Savage, thwarts her plot, she realizes the game is up. For David, though, it’s just beginning . . .
David knows that Sophie is just another pretty face, and he’s more than happy to save his best friend from her shallow advances. She’s not his type at all, so he’s baffled by his response to an awkward encounter with Donovan, another of Sophie’s former flames. Despite himself, David feels driven by an inexplicable need to protect her. Pretending to be Sophie’s new fiancé leads to unexpected sparks between the pair, and soon they’re searching for excuses to spend time together. But when a curveball threatens to send them in opposite directions, will Sophie and David step up to the plate for the possibility of true love?
My Thoughts:
I really liked the idea of this book. I have read a lot of falling for the person you are supposed to stop from doing something and this book did a very good job with this. This book flowed very nicely and had some great lessons in it. There was one part in the end when things just got chaotic and the characters did not act like themselves. But overall this was a brilliant book.
David is a good guy. He sees Sophie’s potential and is honest with her about his thoughts. Sophie starts out a little prideful but as she sees that she is wrong about some things she changes her actions to help others.
“Double Play” is an LDS book and takes place in BYU but it is not cheesy. It is a good Christian romance. Click here to purchaseBuy on Amazon.com!

I received a free copy through Nettgalley in return for an honest review.

A Noble Masquerade by Kristi Ann Hunter

I'm one of those people who always has my nose in a book, I used to say I can't pick a favorite book but now I can. And I can never get tired of this book! I own both the kindle and audible book. I no joke read it around 3 times a month, it never gets old :) I love the characters, the plot and conversations. Miranda is one of those ladies where it is hard for her to control her emotions and the man she loves can see her in a way no one else can. He understands that it is hard for her to keep her spitfire temper in check. They always have witty banters and are constantly doing things to throw off the other's plan to make them mad. But behind all this plotting they both know they love each other and in the end there is a very wonderful Happily Ever After. Book 3 also shows some of their story. I love all the books in this series and would recommend reading all of them!

Court of Midnight and Deception by K.M. Shea

  Summary of Book 1 below my review.   Do you ever read a book and just instantly love the characters? That is what happens every time I read a K.M. Shea book! I don't know how long ago it was when I discovered her books, but I love every single one of them. I recently re-read her Court of Midnight and Deception Series and I enjoyed every moment of it! I really love it when you can re-read books and you want to keep reading because the book is just that good.   The book is set in the USA but there are magical beings walking around with humans. Leila, the main character, is half human and half Fae. She is suddenly told that she is the queen of a kingdom of Fae known as the Night Court. She has such a fun personality, once she realizes that she has to be queen she puts 100% into it and just keeps on being her happy, sarcastic self. I couldn't stop laughing at the many funny situations Leila gets into and the many funny things she says. I also love her inner circle, ea...
