Thank you to the author for the ARC copy to read and review.

A story about a baseball player and a sports reporter, what’s not to like for this baseball fan! ⚾️⚾️

Taran Murphy and Corey Matthews are the main characters. Taran is a Sports Illustrated Gossip Reporter. Not sure if that is a real position?!

Corey Matthews is the star pitcher for an MLB team based in NYC.

Corey is very guarded about his personal life and avoids the media. Taran is struggling with a tragedy in her life that happened a few years ago. Taran would like to do a story about Corey, but she needs to earn his trust. Corey wants to trust Taran, but is she only being nice to him to get a story.

This book is for readers who love enemies to lovers stories and love after lost stories.

This book is the fourth in the Becoming An Evans Book Series. This is the first in the series that I have read. I would like to read the first three. There were many minor characters in this book. Because I hadn’t read the first three books in the series, I had a hard time keeping track of all those characters.

My one issue with this story is Corey choosing not to go on the road with the team a few times. This would not happen in MLB. Players must travel with their team unless there is an injury or family emergency.

“Trust is a two-way street, especially because I want more than just that.”
