Twists!
So, you think you know what the twists are going to be and then you learn you knew nothing. Couldn’t put this book down.

First thoughts at only one chapter in—why do we have to write every college guy as a manwhore with a profanity-laced mouth?
That being said, I'm not going to stop reading. It's just such a common theme. Le sigh.
Update: Forgot to update when I finished the book. I enjoyed it in the end...my beginning complaint is just a mild one. The characters make sense and the H turns out much better than his crass beginnings. Solid NA sports romance read for me!

Well this one was out of the park! Meagan Brandy pitched a no hitter with Dirty Curve and I. Am. Obsessed!
My suggestion… go into this book as blind as you can! And just let it take you away. Because that is exactly what I did and I was happily blown away.
Tobias Cruz is a king at Avix college. He is the star pitcher on the school’s baseball team and he is well on his way to the pros, no question. All he wants is to have a great season. But when his grades start to dip in his anatomy class, he needs a tutor to get him back on track.
Tobias is assigned to Meyer, who seems to be the only girl who literally DOES NOT CARE about his accomplishments or is title. She doesn’t even want to tutor him at all. And her aversion to him infuriates the big man on campus.
This book was way more than just the guy who wants the girl because she doesn’t want him. That’s been some time and time again… No, in Dirty Curve it’s more than the chase for Tobias. It’s also the fact that Meyer is this incredibly strong young woman with a huge heart and so much more.
Tobias finds quickly that he doesn’t want to spend time with her because she is obligated… he wants to earn her time. And neither of them can deny the feelings that start to bloom. But there is so much more to her than meets the eye and that’s only the beginning…
I fell so hard for both Tobias and Meyer. I’m telling you, Tobias is swoon worthy and just absolutely perfect, but Meyer is a force to be reckoned with. She is everything I want in a heroine and more.

I devoured this book. Told in dual POV, it starts with Tobias needing help with a class. What he gets is way more than he bargained for. This story literally had it all. The angst, humor, love and sexy times. We get to see the characters evolve, become better people, but as with all of romanclandia, it’s not without its trials.
This is a perfect storm romance, at least that’s what I call it. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone. At times I was frustrated and wanted to pitch my kindle through a wall, but if you don’t feel strong emotions has the author done their job? Anyways, don’t be a fool and pass this up, it is phenomenal.
