GRAND SLAM may be the third book in the series, but can easily be read as a standalone novel. I will admit that after reading GRAND SLAM, I now want to read the previous novels. The characters are well developed and have their own uniqueness to help make them stand out. A sports romance that is full of the ups and downs that a forbidden relationship can create. When life gives you hard choices, how do you decide what is best for you? GRAND SLAM is perfect for those of you who love a dreamy, steamy romance with a baseball twist.
