My Review:

The Double Play by Annah Conwell is the fourth book in the More Than A Game series.It can be read as a standalone novel; however, I highly recommend reading the series in order to appreciate the story best. The main characters in this book are Emmett and Hazel. Emmett has been in the previous books, and I was looking forward to getting this grump's story, spoiler alert, it did not disappoint. Also, I enjoyed the narration by Charlotte North and Tim Paige.

There are so many things I want to say about this story, but I don't want to spoil anything! This story is pretty magical, and I loved every minute of it. Emmett has been badly burned in a previous relationship, but once he decides to be "in," he is all in, and it is the sweetest story with so many sweet moments. 

Read for:

⚾grumpy/sunshine

⚾single dad + nanny

⚾the friend group texts

⚾Hazel's relationship with her sister, Raven

⚾June

⚾Emmett's protective side

⚾Hazel's mama bear side

⚾healing

⚾found family

I need a copy for my keeper shelf, and I am also so glad that Brock's story is coming soon, because I need it! I have questions, and only The Confidentiality Clause will answer them. 

Many thanks to Dreamscape Media and Net Galley for the opportunity to listen to this story. I was not required to provide a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Synopsis (Amazon):  

I have no business falling in love with Emmett Foster.

The man is an incredibly wealthy professional baseball player who’s ten years older than me and has a daughter.

But when he hires me to take care of said daughter, I find myself catching feelings for the star pitcher.

He’s gruff, but sweet, and has a big heart that he shows in small pieces. Pieces I’d like to collect and call mine.

Unfortunately, he has no plans on marrying again after his ex-wife cheated on him then abandoned him and June.

So even though I think there’s a hint of chemistry between us, nothing will ever come of it. I’ll be stuck crushing on him in silence until we part ways.

The Double Play is a grumpy/sunshine romcom for fans of sweet sports romance. It has all the sizzling chemistry you love, without any of the explicit scenes. Check out the fourth book in the More Than a Game series, an interconnected standalone series based around four men in four different sports.
