A fun spicy baseball romance filled with so much good banter but it also had me swooning! Riggs&Monroe were such a fun couple to read about. Both felt the same way when it came to serious relationships but they couldn’t help but feel the chemistry that just kept pulling them closer to each other, even though the initially went into their relationship as just a rouse. I loved how sassy and fierce Monroe was. She never shied away from who she was when she was around Riggs and I really loved that because she had to pretend to be someone entirely different for her family. Riggs was perfection. He constantly showed his love and affection towards her in the smallest ways. But this man sure knew how to disrespect her in the bedroom

This book didn't disappoint. It didn't just live up to my expectations. My expectations were well and truly exceeded. Candice hit a grand slam out of the park.
Riggs and Monroe had an amazing connection even if it did begin as hatred, but Riggs needed her to show his team bosses that he wasn't a screw up, he was the daytona fury pitcher who had a run in with the team mascot that lead him down a path he never expected.
Monroe was a character that I loved she was a determined marketing manager who wanted to establish a marketing business after the boutique she worked at closed, so she reluctantly agreed to be Rigg's fake girlfriend, this allows her to see a different side of Riggs.
The relationship that developed between Riggs and Monroe was hot, the spicy moments were amazing, and I loved how they connected and slowly built a bond, and Riggs looked after her.
This book was perfectly written, and you couldn't help but get hooked on the characters and their personalities.

Not bad! Beginning felt a little flat and the FMC backstory could have been fleshed out a little more. But the spice was nice.
