Hit it and Quit it by Kelly Reynolds
5.0

Thank you so much to the author for an advance copy of the book!

This book comes out April 12th.

I will be completely honest. I was very hesitant on reading this because I was not the biggest fan of Kelly's novellas. But I kept an open mind and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BOOK! And I am so bummed I have to wait now for the next book in the series.

"And Clarke, it better be my name you're screaming."

I just love the chemistry between Clarke and Soren. He was so head over heels for her and just wanted to do everything to please her. I know some people don't like the insta love but I loved it in this. Their banter and how we saw them grow as a couple in the bedroom and outside of the bedroom. There was a moment where he catches the ball in her lap during a game - SWOOOON. And I know that moment will live rent free in my mind. I just love how they both were so in tune with one another and knew when they needed that extra care. Even during a time when they were at odds, he noticed something was wrong and immediately went over to her calling her "baby" - SWOOOON

I will be thinking about this couple for some time and I know when I read the other books I will be looking forward to catching up with them. OH and there is a grand gesture that will just melt your heart.

Kelly did such a great job with the different stores & teams and I often wish they were real. Like who wouldn't want to go to a romance bookstore called Smutty Buddies.

I love all the side characters and I am so excited to see where the characters go book to book. Pink's personality really shown through in this and it is going to make for a fun second book!

If you are looking for a quick baseball romance with lots of spice that takes place in the PNW - give this a read!

PS - Love the shout out to the Lawrence band who I got to see when they opened for the Jonas Brothers last year!
