Book Review: Throwing Heat by Jennifer Seasons

I am so pleased to be able to share another book in the A Diamonds and Dugouts series with you, Throwing Heat!  Just in time to coincide with the baseball playoffs, Jennifer Seasons hits a huge home run with this book!  

From the Publisher:


The sexy baseball players of Jennifer Seasons' Diamonds and Dugouts series slide into home with a final fiery romance worthy of a World Series win.

Nightclub manager Leslie Cutter has never been one to back down from a bet. So when Peter Kowalskin, pitcher for the Denver Rush baseball team, bets her that she can't keep her hands off of him, she's not about to let the arrogant, gorgeous playboy win. Especially when the prize could put her business on the map. She's got this in the bag, just so long as she can stay out of his arms … and his bed.

Peter struck out once before with Leslie, but this bet is sure to be the second chance he's been waiting for. Determined to stoke the passion he knows is there, he'll do anything to win-even if it means playing a little dirty.

But as things heat up, this combustible pair will have to decide just how much they're willing to wager on one another … and on a future that just might last forever.

My Review:

I first introduced many of you to Jennifer Seasons with my review of Stealing Home in the spring, and this novel offers you new insights into characters you met in that book.  This is another really fun read that meshes a love of the game with some really strong and exciting characters. I love how they have a history and expectations going into their 'bet' that really heat up the page.  I would totally recommend reading Stealing Home first to get into the flavor of their past relationship, but even as a stand-alone book, you can see that this is a really fun read and a great way to mesh a love of Baseball with a love of romance!  

Even if you're not into the Boys of Summer, you'll still find this novel fun, engaging and sexy and you'll smile your way through this read.  If you're looking for a great weekend escape read or you're heading out for Fall vacation, you'll want to take along Throwing Heat  by Jennifer Seasons.
