Too Hot to Handle

In Katie Rose's Too Hot to Handle, the 2nd installment in the Boys of Summer baseball sports romance series, this newest love story hits a grand slam right out of the ballpark. Jake Baldwin is the star hitter of the Sonics baseball team and a ladies man. But when Nikki Case, their new PR spokesperson, arrived in his world, it changed everything. At first, everyone gave her a hard time by pulling practical joke. They even made a bet to see if Jake can seduce Nikki--a bet he's not willing to lose for a mere locker.  Nikki Case had met her match when she met Jake and the team, though she was through with baseball when her ex gambled away their fortune. But while she tried to clean up their bad boy image, things changed into their favor. She'd gotten to know more about Jake and his persona--how he helped his alcoholic mother and gave a Hispanic boy a job and so much more. While she dealt with pressure from the bass of the team's owner and went toe-to-toe to him, she learned what it was really about the bet and how her heart broken was afterwards. In the end, Jake comes to his senses and sweeps her off her feet to her happily ever after ending.

This was another captivating sports romance with the baseball theme. I'm really enjoying and loving any type of sports romance stories these days, especially with the Covid-19 outbreak. when we'll be watching any sports from home to see fan-less empty stadiums. I really cared for Nikki and how she turned things around for the Sonics and how she cared for her sister and nephews. I also loved how Jake took Joaquin under his wings and cared for his mother and looked out for others in the team. Even though he was coerced into the bet, he did follow his heart and chased his dreams to find his own true love. I loved the Southern New Jersey location and the other visual settings in the area to make it come alive. The themes are to follow your heart and live for your dreams and be caring to others.

If you love fantastic sport romance stories with tons of romantic drama, compelling sports action, lots of intrigue and a spark of mystery, check out Too Hot to Handle today! It's a home run!
