Baseball has never been sexier in an all-new novel by New York Times Bestselling Author, K. Bromberg. Easton Wylder is baseball royalty. The game is his life. His passion. His everything. So, when an injury threatens to end Easton’s season early, the team calls in renowned physical therapist, Doc Dalton, to oversee his recovery. Except it’s not Doc who greets Easton for his first session, but rather, his daughter, Scout. She may be feisty, athletic, defiant, and gorgeous, but Easton is left questioning whether she has what it takes to help him. Scout Dalton’s out to prove a female can handle the pressure of running the physical therapy regimen of an MLB club. And that proof comes in the form of getting phenom Easton Wylder back on the field. But getting him healthy means being hands-on. And with a man as irresistible as Easton, being hands-on can only lead to one thing, trouble. Because the more she touches him, the more she wants him, and she can’t want him. Not when it’s her job to maintain the club’s best interest, in regards to whether he’s ready to play. But when sparks fly and fine lines are crossed, can they withstand the heat, or is one of them bound to get burned?

EASTON!!!
K. Bromberg sure knows how to leave us readers hanging, but
in the best way possible. This book had me turning the pages from the
beginning. I wasn’t sure what to think of Easton (H) at first but he redeemed
himself and it didn’t take long.
Scout was awesome from the get go. I loved how strong she
was but also the things she was dealing with left her vulnerable too. She didn’t
let her vulnerability show and owned her position as a PT for these famous
baseball players in predominantly a man’s world. She has never let a player get
to her except “The Player,” her new client Easton.
“I like Easton. And
not just that lusty kind of indifferent attraction I feel occasionally with
players I work with.”
Easton needs to get back on the field within a certain time
frame, or risk his career and being traded this is all on the line, which also
leaves him vulnerable. He doesn’t know what to think about his new therapist,
he wants the best and he hasn’t even heard of her before but what he does know
is that he is instantly drawn to her.
Scout is scared of the ramifications getting involved with
Easton will entail and Easton won’t give up which puts this fun, sexy, witty
spin on the story. I love how it’s the guy after the girl and not this love
sick girl trying to get this player with the bad reputation. Easton is good
people and I love that.
“A contract is business,
Scout. But this? You. Me? This is pleasure.”
Easton and Scout both have similarities in family issues, they
can relate having to live in their father’s footsteps, and they can bond with
each other over these things. Towards the end of the book there is a scene
between Scout and Eaton’s father that I just loved. I had it highlighted to
quote but I decided I’m not going to. It’s too good to spoil.
Oh my god and the end, my heart was racing and I was turning
the pages so fast and that’s exactly how she wrote it. Kristy did that so well,
really had you feeling that rush…and then BAM!
We have many secrets to learn! I cannot wait for book two!! Is it June yet?
