Blurb:

Meet Braxton Smith in this new enemies to lovers romance.

Dating the hot athlete? Yeah, been there, done that...

Braxton Smith.

Cessna University’s baseball captain.

Naturally talented.

Sinfully gorgeous.

And exudes enough arrogance to fill a stadium.

That same cocky attitude is what landed him in my anonymous gossip column.

Believe me, I, Cara Gonzalez, don’t want anything to do with him.

But he’s everywhere.

In my class.

In my dorm.

In my mind.

I left this type of drama back home.

Transferring to Cessna University is my chance for a redo.

And regardless of his rock-hard abs and panty-dropping smile.

Arguing with an athlete isn’t one of my goals.

My instincts betray me, though.

This attraction feels different.

Stronger.

I have no choice but to stand my ground. 

Because this time, I’m afraid I’ll not only be hurt.

I’ll end up gutted.

Book one in the Cessna U Wildcats series, Swinging Strike is an enemy to lovers, standalone romance. If you like sexy, hot baseball players, buy Braxton Smith today.


My Review:

This was my first Kimberly Readnour's book, but won't be my last. This is the first book and a great introduction to the Cessna U Wildcarts Series, a sweet College Sports Romance. Braxton is a handsome and sexy baseball player, but after a bad experience, he has some trust issues.  Cara is beautiful, and independent. She has some prejudices against athletes. They share an undeniable attraction, but they have a complicated relationship, exacerbated by a lack of communication. The storyline is filled with secrets, angst, gossips, lies, and twists and turns.  The secondary characters are great and intriguing. Miller, the dog, is a sweet addition to the story. Sarah Puckett and Chris Brinkley did a good job with the narration.  Looking forward to listen to the next book in the Series, Behind the Count, Noah and Shannon's story. #AudiobookObsessionVIPreviewer
