This is the first Melanie Scott book that I have read, but I will be reading more.

The Devil In Denim had me in from the first chapter, and had my heart breaking for the main character Maggie right from the get go. After her father sells her legacy off, she feels that all she has worked for since she was a child has been sold down the river, she is left feeling a little sad and sorry for herself, and it doesn't help that she is attracted to the man who took it all away.

I loved Alex, Lucas and Mal - or the Hot Trio as I dubbed them. But especially Alex. Loved that he went for what he wanted. He saw, he wanted, he got! But especially loved that he wasn't too over the top alpha about it, he listened to Maggie, understood her feelings about their relationship, but still went for it all the same.

Maggie - my heart broke for her over and over as things happened with the family business. I could feel her devastation at the lost of her beloved team, her anger at her father for blind siding her with it,her confusion over he feelings for Alex - how can you love someone you should hate?

Loved the secondary characters, particularly Hana and Shelly. Love these ladies to bits! I want the in my corner, wouldn't want to face off against them.

This was a cute sweet read. Loved that it showed the behind the scenes and sometimes seedy side of the baseball world, and didn't focus on the players themselves. There were a few editing issues that I came across (had to reread a few sentences, and they still didn't make sense) but it did not take too much away from my enjoyment. Another quick round of editing should fix these things up.
