Synopsis:
Sexy. Famous. A player on and off the field.
Cooper Knox has a body built for sex and sin, and he’s my dirty little secret.
He was supposed to be a one-night stand – but now he’s back in town, and he’s going to find out the truth.
I’m his best friend’s little sister: off-limits and totally out of his league.
We swore we’d stay away from each other.
Our secret could destroy everything.
But Knox always gets what he wants.
And he wants me.
This baseball romance is HOT HOT HOT!!
This is my first book by Eve Jagger and she does not disappoint with this steamy story served up with a side of Southern charm. It is very obvious that the author really knows her subject matter and setting! And Knox and Shelby make for a super-enjoyable, very hot, fast-paced read.
Knox is a major-league baseball player who has been suddenly traded to the Atlanta Braves. Although he’s shocked, trades are a part of the sport and he is excited to be back with his old friends and also to maybe find the woman he spent one hot New Year’s Eve with. Shelby is a smart, gorgeous woman who is now working in PR for the Atlanta Falcons football team. Shelby and Knox run into each other again, and Knox is in for a big surprise when he finds out that Shelby is the younger sister of his friend Jackson.
Shelby’s brother is, to put it mildly, overprotective of his sister and who she dates. So Knox and Shelby have to hide their mega-steamy romance from her brother. Sneaking around is not what Shelby had in mind. It is clear these two have some major obstacles to overcome. Will Knox stand up to Jackson? Will Shelby be able to convince her brother that she is an adult and can make her own choices?
The banter between Knox and Shelby is priceless. She looks down on the sport of baseball (at first!) and the one-liners about sports are hilarious. Although this is a sports romance, you do NOT have to be a sports fan to appreciate the dirty-talking Knox or the behind-the-scenes look into the sport of baseball.
The prequel novella, ONE NIGHT WITH KNOX, is equally hot and although I read it after KNOX, sets up the steamy one night stand when Knox and Shelby first meet. Overall, this series is sweet, sexy, fast-paced and very enjoyable. I love Ms. Jagger’s writing style and will definitely read more in the Sexy Bastards series!
