Premise/Plot: From
Amazon - He thought their love was a
grand slam, until his bride called foul...
After an impulsive courthouse wedding with one of baseball's rising stars, Melanie Webb wonders if she's fallen victim to lust at first sight. She hardly knows Grady Hollis, the Atlanta ball player who swooped into her Florida hometown and charmed the socks--and more!--right off her. She couldn't resist when he proposed under the stars right on the outfield. But when the aftermath means moving to Atlanta and following him around the country for his eight-month a year travel schedule, she gets cold feet.
But Grady has never been a man to give up on a dream and Melanie is everything he ever hoped for in a woman. He knows if only he can convince her to come along for the ride, he'll convince her that their forever can be something special... and sizzling too. The road trip brings them both deeper understanding, surprise revelations and a love every bit as fiery as the passion.

My thoughts: I loved
this story! The ending brought me to the
brink of tears but I got the happy ending which prevented the tears from
falling. This story though short was
very well written and executed. The
characters were well developed and believable.
The story of Melanie and Grady I think will hit home with a lot of
couples that experienced that whirlwind love.
This is definitely worth the read especially to experience a new
author! Really and truly the only
negative I could find was the fact that it was short; I would have loved to see
some of the relationship before the marriage.
Rating 9/10
Recommendation:
Contemporary romance fans will love this!!
