A forbidden romance with the coach’s daughter wasn’t part of my game plan. 

I had an excuse two years ago when I met her on campus. She interviewed me for a story on major league baseball’s rising stars, and we shared a hot, passionate night that ended far too soon, and without a mention of who her father was.

Now I know the innocent but sexy woman I can’t stop thinking about is the coach’s daughter.

That means her dad is the guy who determines if I bat fourth in the starting lineup in every game, or ride the bench.

All the more reason to resist alluring, confident, brainy Reese every time I run into the reporter-turned-sports publicist.

That ought to be easy enough, until the time she confesses she’s still carrying her V card, and she’s been wanting me to cash it in since the day we met.

Staying away from her is going to be harder than resisting a fastball down the middle.

Especially since I’m pretty sure she’s the one who got away, and letting her slip through my fingers again would be a rookie mistake.

Review

4.5 “What-if” stars!

Holden is a rising baseball player. He focusses on the game and is a planner when it comes to everything in his life. However, he veers off course when he meets Reese and his life is irrevocably changed before he knows it.

I got up that morning with one goal. But then I met her, ditched my plans for the afternoon, and spent it with her instead. When I kissed her at the edge of campus, beneath the twilit sky, under a canopy of trees, the night felt young and possible.
Even though we weren’t. We were worlds apart, absolutely impossible.
That’s how she became my what-if girl.

Holden and Reese share an amazing day that turns into an unforgettable evening. They have a connection and they want to try being in a relationship despite the fact it would be long distance. Before they can meet up again, Reese is pulled away to pursue her dream and they lose contact, always wondering where the other is and how they are doing.

Two years later they are in the same city and when they bump into each other, that connection is still there. Ready to go all in, they discover that Reese’s father is the new manager of his baseball team and she is now off limits.

The Virgin Game Plan is an entertaining forbidden, second chance sports romance and a fantastic addition to the Rules of Love series. I love Holden and Reese. They are no-nonsense, wonderful characters who quickly found a place in my heart.

Reese is a determined, confident heroine, and Holden is a sweet, swoony hero. From the start, they just click. They have fantastic chemistry, and fun, flirty, banter. They are open and honest, and it’s easy between them.

Now, she’s the coach’s daughter and totally off limits. Bring on the sexual tension. It’s so thick when these two are together and it doesn’t take long before they give in, and it is sweet, swoony, and smoking hot.

I want to say that we can be friends. But Holden and I were never friends. We were a match set to kindling. We were instant attraction. We were passion and respect, igniting all at once. We were destined for one path and one path only.

I loved the pacing of the story, and I believed the progression of their relationship. I also love that there is very little drama. They are mature and reasonable and know how to communicate. They just make sense, and I was rooting for them the moment they met.

I don’t have a plan. I don’t know what’s next. But I know this much—it’s not time to move on. It’s time to go for it. Whatever the hell that entails.

Overall, I loved The Virgin Game Plan. Second chance romance is one of my favorite tropes and this one was really well done. It’s original and entertaining and so much fun. I adored Holden and Reese and enjoyed their story.
