Synopsis:
Here’s the deal: I’m the best center fielder in the major leagues. I’m also the guy who cost his team the championship game and acted very unsportsmanlike. So, when the team hires a social media manager to repair the damage to my reputation, I don’t argue. But then I meet Chloe Conrad, and I suddenly understand what people mean when they say they have an instant connection to someone. Which means I’m in serious trouble. Chloe’s a smart, sexy distraction I can’t afford, but one date can’t hurt, right? Only she turns me down. And just like that, it’s game on.
She’s sworn off love…
Finn Auprince is the hottest player in the major leagues. Look up “It Factor” in the dictionary and there’s his handsome face. He’s also my biggest client and I don’t care how easy it is to talk to him or how fun it is to manage his social media accounts, I will not give in to his charms. Then one drunken night, I tell him about my curse: all my previous boyfriends have found their soul mates while dating me. One more heartbreak, and I’ll never recover. But Finn doesn’t believe in curses—he believes in me. Professionally and personally. He sets out to prove the universe isn’t against me, and that his one true love isn’t waiting around the next corner.
The problem is…can we play the game of love and both come out on top?

My Thoughts:
Finn Auprince is a little down because he’s had a temporary setback. Chloe Conrad is not having a good day. You know you’re going to have a good time with a book when you have a character that doesn’t say anything yet you can’t help but laugh. There were times when I started looking for said character in some scenes and she was nowhere to be found.
I could understand why the author did that though because being a scene-stealer can be a tough job and it can be hard to bring your focus back to the main characters. It was nice to see the quick development of the ease these two had when they were around each other. That’s not to say that Chloe isn’t a little gun shy.
With the baseball season just getting into full swing, this makes it a good time to read this book. If you’re significant other is a big fan, they can watch the game and you can read Finn and Chloe’s story. It goes at just the right speed and nothing seems rushed. Sometimes I have an issue with speed-reading but I found myself slowing down and just enjoying what this author has created.
It was interesting to watch Finn take advantage of situations and on the flipside, to watch Chloe feel uncomfortable but able to feel a connection. Even though there is a baseball theme, the author doesn’t go overboard about the sport. It’s more like a secondary character that helps the scenes flow. The ending gave me one last laugh as well as saying “ew”. And the author twists that around to make it romantic. She also goes one step further and we get a look at the next book in the series.
