Passion
dominates the diamond in the second novel in this fun and flirty baseball
romance series by the author of High Heat.
Paul Dudley, president of the Plainview Thrashers, is spinning out of control. Preserving his family’s baseball legacy in these tough times takes everything he’s got, and constant clashes with his father have left him struggling for authority over the team and even his own future. So when sports reporter Willow Bourne, a one-night-stand from a year ago, walks back into his life, he knows he can’t give into his feelings for her—no matter how strong they are.
Willow never expected to see Paul again, and she’s got her reasons for keeping her distance. Except the more time she spends around Paul, the harder it is to hide her secrets—or stop herself from falling head over heels.
As the sparks between them fly, Paul discovers what Willow has been concealing from him, leaving him with a difficult choice—keep the team his top priority or make his own legacy by following his heart…

Review - 3 Stars
When her secret comes to light will it ruin everything that her and Paul have built?
When Paul reconnects with Willow he is ready to start things where they ended on their passionate night under the pier. Only nothing is the same. The passionate woman that he remembers has been replaced with someone who is guarded and does everything in her power to keep him away.
There were things that I did really like about the book. Paul's reaction to Willow's and Alex's friendship was funny. I also loved that Willow had a great friend in Kendra who always provided sound advice. I loved that Paul adapted to fatherhood so easily. It's like he was made for the role. I was even more impressed because Paul didn't have a good father to learn from.
Over all the story kept me interested.

Linda Morris Bio:
The
hero and heroine meet in fiery ball of passion. After meeting things quickly
escalated to night of passion that neither can forget. Memories of their night
together linger long after they go their separate ways. They both try to
reconnect for different reasons.
I
had a hard time connecting with the characters after the beginning. Willow never
expects to see Paul again. However when they are placed in each other’s paths
again she does her best to keep her distance. I didn't agree with how long she
kept her secret. After a certain amount of time I just couldn't agree with her
reasoning.

Will he be able to break through her walls and bring back the Willow that he
hasn't been able to get out of his head?

It took way to long for Paul and Willow to get their relationship on a good
path. Then once they did it happened so abruptly and so near the end of the
story that I didn't have a chance to bask in their happiness.
Over all the story kept me interested.
