Blurb

I should absolutely, under no circumstance develop a crush on my co-worker–the grumpy, wolf-daddy, much older high school baseball coach.

First problem? He’s twenty years older than me. Second? I’ve never even been kissed. Third? When I ask him to teach me, he said yes.

In my defense, Grey Brooks is a great coach. As an elementary school librarian, I know more about books than swinging hammers or baseball bats. I thought I was a lost cause, but from showing me how to throw a baseball to fixing up my rickety old house, all he does is teach me. And somewhere between the lessons and the laughter, we become friends. So asking him to teach me to kiss…etc, just makes sense. Right? Right?

He makes rules. Keep it casual. Keep it secret. Keep the feels in check.

But in a small town where everyone’s watching, nothing stays secret for long. Every rule we break blurs the line between lessons and love, the rumors are getting louder, and Grey thinks he’s going to ruin me.

He might be right. But not for the reasons he thinks.

Because there’s more than gossip hiding in Roseville. And by the time I see the danger coming, the only person who can save me is the one everyone says I should stay away from.

Review

4 stars!

Sweet Spot is book three in the Roseville Ramblers series and it’s so good to be back in Roseville, TN. Featuring Molly and Grey, their love story takes you on a wild ride with ups, downs, and curves you don’t see coming. It’s an age gap, forbidden, small town romance, and it’s hard not to fall for these two the moment you meet them.

Molly is new to town and is finally on her own after living a very sheltered life under her parents’ watch. She’s twenty-four, excited to have a new job as the school librarian, a house to call her own, even if the house is in need of a lot of work, and friends that stick by her. She also just joined the teacher baseball league even though she has never played baseball but the hot coach, Grey, is there to help her learn. He is such a great coach, in fact, and so comfortable to be around, somehow Molly convinces him to be her coach for other things. Sexy things. What should be a casual learning experience turns into the opposite when feelings creep in and everyone has an opinion.

Molly is so sweet and naive but she knows what she wants and she wants Grey to teach her all the firsts she hasn’t encountered yet. Grey is grumpy with everyone but Molly seems to bring some light to his life. She’s like no one he’s met before and it doesn’t take long to see there is something special between them. Now, they are all sorts of sweet, especially Grey, but these two bring even more spice to the story as they discover just what Molly has been missing. It’s smoking hot, especially since they are keeping things a secret, making things even more intense.

When it comes out that these two are seeing each other, everything changes. It’s not easy for them and the challenges they face are frustrating. It seems like everyone is against them, and they need to figure out what is best for them. As stated above, there are major ups and downs as Molly and Grey try to navigate their feelings. Some of the drama is a little over the top and I was frustrated with how things were going. As we approached the end of the book, though, things made more sense and the drama bothered me less and less.

There was a twist I expected and thought that it would be the big reveal, but actually it’s another curve ball that threw me for a loop. I had no idea the story was going to take the turn it did and I loved being surprised. I also loved the way it all played out. It was intense and kept me on the edge of my seat, and I couldn’t put the book down until it was resolved.

The first epilogue was fantastic and gave me just what I needed when it came to Molly and Grey. I am so glad we got their story and cannot wait for more from this group of characters. The second epilogue gives us a sneak peak into the fourth book of the series and I am so excited for that story.
