a new five star read, yay!!xxx
oh how I love this book!!! I love love love Liz’s windy city series, it’s one of my fav series ever with some of my fav books ever so I’ve been literally counting down the days for this release and it was completely worth the wait. I think it may be my new comfort read🩷 Liz’s writing is so captivating and everything just felt so real. I finished it in two days but it totally would have been a one-sitting if I didn’t start so late at night. I adore Reese, she may be one of my fav fmc ever!! I just adored that as her being a plus size fmc, her weight was never mentioned as a bad thing or a storyline for her to develop self-love (as she already had it), she was just plus-size and it was celebrated and worshipped by Monty which I loved so so much!! Reese was fierce, confident, headstrong and driven but she also had a soft side and vulnerability with Monty which I loved. Their relationship just felt so respectable and mature and like true love. Monty was the perfect mmc!! And of course, I loved seeing the other characters from the series as well, 100% recommend this series if you haven’t read it yet xxx
blurbÂ
As the first female team owner in Major League Baseball, Reese Remington has spent her entire life preparing for this role. With a sharp mind and years of experience working behind the scenes, she's more than qualified. But the public only sees a woman in a man's world — not the person who's earned their place on the field. Under constant scrutiny and pressure to prove herself, Reese can't afford distractions. Especially one that comes in the form of the team's tempting field manager who questions her every decision. Emmett Montgomery is a former All-Star turned coach who treats his players like family and the field like home. After years of running the team his way, the last thing he wants is a new boss, let alone one who seems ice-cold and laser-focused on business. But forced to spend long hours - and too many away games - side by side, he begins to see the fire beneath Reese's control, the heart behind her ambition, and the unwavering determination to prove herself. When heated banter turns into sizzling chemistry, professional boundaries blur and the spark between them becomes impossible to resist. But Reese is constantly reminded of how many people are waiting for her to fail, and the safest move is to keep Emmett at arm's length - for the sake of the team, the season, and her career. But keeping their distance is one game neither of them can seem to win.
