Publisher's summary

A sexy stand-alone forbidden sports romance from number-one New York Times best seller Lauren Blakely, performed by Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson!

The woman I want is as off-limits as they come.

I had an excuse two years ago when I met her on campus. She interviewed me for a story on major league baseball's rising stars, and we shared a hot, passionate night that ended far too soon, and without a mention of who her father was.

Now I know the innocent but sexy woman I can’t stop thinking about is the coach's daughter.

That means her dad is the guy who determines if I bat fourth in the starting lineup in every game, or ride the bench.

All the more reason to resist alluring, confident, brainy Reese every time I run into the reporter-turned-sports publicist.

That ought to be easy enough, until she confesses she's still carrying her V card, and she’s been wanting me to cash it in since the day we met.

Staying away from her is going to be harder than resisting a fastball down the middle. Especially since I'm pretty sure she's the one who got away, and letting her slip through my fingers again would be a rookie mistake.

I do love a bad bad boy.. but sometimes it’s really nice to listen to a good boy who waited two years for a second-chance with the right woman.

Their Baseball fuelled relationship has delicious stepping-stones and just the right amount of waiting where ‘off-limits’ slowly bends, crosses lines and nicely leads to happily ever afters. There’s hurt and character growth in there too as a daughter tries to forgive and get to know her absentee Father and his new pregnant wife.

Hooked from the first chapter!

A connection like theirs is rare and they both knew it.  Sadly, it just wasn't their time, because they each still had some growing to do in their careers. A chance meeting at a party years later proves just how strong of a connection they have. With lines like this, "Good. That's how you should be kissed so you don't forget how it feels when my lips touch you." My god, this was the swooniest book ever! I fell in love with Holden and Reese and I really think you all will too!
Can we talk about how amazing Ava Erickson and Jason Clarke were in this book? I just loved their performances in this book.

So, so, so swoony!!

From the time they met within minutes of this audiobook starting, Holden and Reese captured my heart, and this has to be the quickest I started rooting for a couple.

Reese was this confident, self-assured, badass in the making. I loved that she knew what she wanted, and had no problem working to get it. Holden pretty much had his professional life mapped out. He was new to major league baseball, and wanted to make the most of the opportunity. Holden wasn't interested in random hook-ups, so dating was rare for him, and he was fine with that. He had goals to attain, and a relationship wasn't part of his plans. Until he met Reese.

No spoilers, but I loved how Holden and Reese had that almost immediate click between them. They prolonged their time together, and it looked like Cupid was playing matchmaker w/them. Until an important event happens, and puts their hearts and flowers on hold. Reese focused on her job, and Holden focused on baseball. As busy as they were, they remained hopeful that the stars would line up for them. Their positivity, hope, and faith were so inspiring.

This was a beautifully sweet love story. Of course, Lauren brings plenty of the heat we've come to expect. Jason and Ava were amazing in their narration. I can't wait for the next story in this awesome series.

Awe Now that was unique story.

This book is very well written. The plot strengths as it should to that "awe" moment at the end of story. Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson were excellent narrators of this entertaining Audio book.
I highly recommend it when you need a few hours of listening to something lighthearted and swoon worthy.

Fantastic!!

I loved every second of The Virgin Game Plan!! This forbidden sports romance will make you swoon. I loved Reese and Holden. Holden isn’t your cocky baseball player, he sweet, sexy and has a great heart! Holden agrees to do a podcast interview with Reese and these two hit it off from the start! After one day together they want more, only life takes them in different directions. Time doesn’t lessen the feelings their short time together invoked. When their paths cross again their feelings haven’t changed, but a curveball neither expected makes this relationship seem impossible. I loved the way this story came together and way Reese and Holden fought and never gave up!

Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson were perfect together and gave the characters a spark that made you want to listen forever!

Home run!

As a huge fan of Lauren Blakely and sports romance I had high expectations for this new book and it far and away exceeded everything I had hope for. Holden and Reese are an adorable couple who were absolutely meant to be together and fate made sure that happened. The steamy, sexy, romantic love story with very little angst and not too much drama was just exactly what I wanted from this book and it delivered. Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson were perfection and brought all the heat and the feels to this beautifully written and flawlessly performed audiobook. Worth a credit for sure!

Wow. Just wow!

The Virgin Game Plan is the second book in the Rules of Love series by the fabulous, Lauren Blakely. I am loving this series something fierce! These characters just make me happy! They are all sexy, sweet, funny and talented. I'm envious of their friendship bonds and I want to be friends with the women they fall for! Lauren is the queen character development. She introduces us to them once and we are always eager for more. So much more! The Virgin Game Plan is Holden and Reese's story. It's fresh, flirty, and funny. Holden and Reese met years ago and had an instant connection. They talked, shared things about themselves and both wanted more after the night was over. Fate had other plans and their lives and dreams took them in different directions. Now, it's two years later and they find themselves in the same town, in the same circles. And as soon as they see each other again it's like no time has passed. They want to pick up where they left off. Until her father becomes Holden's new coach. Now she's off limits. But they can't seem to stay away from each other. Is love worth the risk? I love this story! Holden is swoony, sexy, funny and smart. Reese is independent, knows who she is and talented. They are the perfect match. Career driven, but also want to follow their hearts. They show us that both are possible! This forbidden romance made me swoon so hard! The sexy, second baseman and the coach's daughter have off-the-charts chemistry!

Audio: Jason Clarke and Ava Erickson were amazing as Holden and Reese. I love the way they sound together. Swoony, sexy and perfect!
