DNF@40%... It was too childish and the characters just weren’t mature enough, especially the coach. There’s a lot lacking and I was just not feeling this story.
2.5 stars
This is more of a 3.5 rounded up book for me. It was mostly well-written but had some typos and punctuation errors sprinkled throughout. I think the thing that bothered me the most was the sudden jump from "I hate you for breaking my heart" to "I want to be with you forever." The book started off at a great pace, giving the reader some back story from both main character perspectives, and then casually strolling into the reason why they meet again years later.

This is primarily a low-budget sex romp. The almost instant transition from one-sided hate to full on partners is awkward at best. Marley's preschool temper tantrums are at complete odds with her position as the supposedly charismatic team captain. Finally, the depiction of an intercollegiate sports team is not at all believable.

It was okay with a HEA ending, though as I mentioned in my lone progress note (why doesn't iOS's Kindle app have a way to just click through to GoodReads in mid-story?) there's a lot of emo and nasty rivalry to the two succumbing first to their mutual attraction, and finally to trusting each other enough to love. I wanted to yell "High School's over, time to woman up!" in both their ears through the first half of the book.

Marley is in her senior year of college and is a star catcher on the school's softball team. When her team's coach has a baby, the school hires a temporary replacement to get them through the season. That replacement is Penny (Penelope), Marley's former high school crush who broke her heart and almost turned her off softball.

I really enjoyed this book. I read it in a couple of hours. The characters are amazing. I look forward to reading another book by this author.
Not a bad story
This was a good story, lots of steamy sex scenes, would if preferred more sports. But on the whole not a bad book.

Lark Maren was 'fired' as the sports editor of her high school newspaper back in 2001 because she was more interested in the juicy gossip behind the players than the actual games themselves.
After a (long enough) stint as a political analyst, she decided to get back to her roots and follow her love of writing about sports, this time on her own terms.
