Strike Zone

Not my favorite of the series. I was disinclined to like the heroine from the beginning; leaving your intended at the altar is such a selfish, cowardly thing to do. The hero in the B story was annoying and obnoxious as well.

What really drove me up the wall was that Angell kept getting basic baseball facts wrong. The AL and NL do not regularly play each other, and a ball off the foul pole is not a foul ball. It's a freakin' home run. Come on, this book is obviously written for baseball fans who like romance; would it be hard to find an editor who knows the sport to correct the errors? It's not like baseball is an obscure sport! Though there have been small errors in the others of this series, they weren't nearly as glaring as this show more one.

I'll probably give this series one more shot, but with Strike Zone, the series has two strikes against it. show less

Brek and Taylor were engaged but she left him at the altar to guide a Thrill Seeker trip. He is now engaged to a quiet sedate woman which is what brings Taylor home. When they meet again Brek tries to show how little she means to him. He learns a lot of things--especially that she is still important to him.

Also Taylor's sister Eve who runs the Thrill Seekers office finds romance with Brek's teammate Sloan. He thinks he'll teach her but she teaches him what is means to truly love. When it looks like he might lose her he goes big.

I enjoyed this book. I liked Brek and Taylor. I loved Eve and watching her get the better of Sloan. The other secondary characters are also good. I'd like to see read of their stories especially Kasen (I hope he show more has one.) show less
