I actually tried to read the first Boys of Summer story but it wasn't quite my taste and so I skipped over the second ... but thanks to the third I'm definitely going back to give it a shot :)

I love these guys - they are high spirited and fun, but they are serious when they need to be. Gavin has a lot on his plate. He's coming off of a potentially career ending surgery and has been traded to a lower tier team. He's not handling it well and is feeling sorry for himself. He just doesn't realize yet how lucky he is to have Jessica. Not only does she work wonders on his knee but she's good for his attitude as well.

I love Jessica. She's grown up in a man's world and is good at holding her own. She understands how their minds work and that is very handy in her job. She's just what Gavin needs to get his head back in the game ... and he's just what she needs to remind her that she's a woman too. There's actually a few things that happen to help Jess's new attitude - Gavin, new girlfriends, and a jerk of an ex. But the more girly she feels and the more time she spends with Gavin, the harder it is to keep from falling for the sexy (both inside and out) ballplayer.

I remember thinking that Bring On the Heat was well written but I had an issue with a couple of the characters' actions. And it was true here as well, although not enough to keep me from enjoying the story overall - it's a minor complaint and came at the very end. Jessica seemed to come so far over the course of the second half of the book and then just regressed. I'd thought she'd grown so much and had become such a confident woman that I was a little disappointed in her actions. But Gavin's totally made up for it and had me falling for him just that little bit more.

Packed full of spunky characters, complimented with an appealing plot, The Heat of the Moment is the perfect read for fans of sports romances.
