I am very keen to read more from Karen Rock and hope that more of her books consist of sporting based romance. I knew and understood the turmoil that were in and the need that they felt. I love that I could feel the passion, determination and inner workings of the characters. That pent up mix of frustration, passion and bewilderment that comes with finding someone who is just as competitive and very like-minded. After all, if you are sporty, competitive person, you will know the feeling that Rock portrays in her writing. She has given an excellent about of detail and character backing to make them very real and easy to bond with. This is all due to the great, detailed writing by Karen Rock. However, even if you know nothing at all about the sport, you will still be given enough detail to know what is happening, why it is important and how the two main characters could become so close. I played when I lived in the states, but it is not as common over here, in the UK. With this read, I do feel that knowing a bit about baseball or softball, would likely be a plus. Being a rather sporty person myself, and with my hubby and I meeting through sport - well, it was caving, but that is very much a personal sport. Yes, I know romance reads, based round sports, have been round for years, but this is my first one to read. What I Thought:This book is a great new style of contemporary romance.
