Publisher's summary

The most anticipated J. Sterling release of the year is finally here! You’ve waited years to meet Jack Carter’s son, and the wait is over! Strap in and enjoy the ride.

Chance Carter is the son of local baseball legend Jack Carter. Now in his junior year at Fullton State, Chance is facing challenges he never saw coming. Failing a class will stop his draft season short, making him ineligible to play and pushing his goal of professional baseball even further away.

In steps Danika, a mouthy tutor from New York, who only wants to help him pass his class...not get in his pants. But try telling that to Chance. He doesn’t trust girls, and he definitely doesn’t trust his new tutor. A lifetime growing up as a Carter taught him that.

But Danika has issues of her own. After an incident that happened last year, she doesn’t trust athletes and wants nothing to do with them. And Chance is no exception.

The fireworks explode as the two try to deny the chemistry between them and family secrets are revealed. Chance doesn’t know how to give up on something he wants, and he’s decided he wants Danika. There’s just one problem...she has a boyfriend with whom she has no intention of breaking up.

How can he have her when she belongs to someone else?

Great love story

Loved the story, there was a lot more language then I like and the romantic scenes were a little steamy, but their relationship was really cute, narrators did a great job.

Super Cute

Cute sports romance. I enjoyed the story and characters. Definitely will continue with this series. Highly recommend

cute story.

it was refreshing to hear the perspective of a guy who doesn't want all the attention he got from girls just for his fame. What was over the top was his reluctance in relationships yet he knew what he was doing romantically without the experience.

Good Continuation

While this is a stand alone in this series I do think I would have liked it even more had I read the Parents Series first but overall the references aren't too bad just my curious nature makes it that way for me personally. Overall it's a good story I do think there were some parts that just didn't get fully explained or were glossed over. Like Jared I feel like we kept getting built up for something but them it kinda fizzled and happened OP which considering it was a main part of the plot didn't make sense to me. Narration was ok there were a few parts where the "NY accent" was tried and just no but luchily its not done throughout the entire thing so overall it was a good listen.

loved it

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

Fantastic Read

Absolutely love to read books by this author. Narrators did a great job. No angst.

"Accent" is horrible!!!

The story is great, but the random imitations of a NY accent is just horrible. Some words are SO exaggerated it literally made me cringe every time.

Chance & Danika

A witty, charming, sweet, and heartwarming story of two people that certainly belonged together. Chance and Danika have a beautiful connection that tugs at your heartstrings. It was not all roses, they did have some bumps in their journey but they talked things out like adults. I absolutely adored this story.
Narration was great.

I love this

I’m am going to get all 3 of these books I swear I love this

Love

I only wish I had read the first story… sometimes the credit is worthy! You will enjoy this read and I will go in reverse! Do yourself a favor and get book one first!
