image003

Title: HardBall
Author:  C.D. Reiss
Genre: Contemporary Sports 
Romance
Publication Date:  March 29th 2016
Plot: Perfect ass.

Perfect arms.

Perfect swagger.

They call Dash Wallace the Diamond King.

He’s the hottest commodity in baseball and in the bedroom.

When he runs the bases, every woman’s eyes are glued to his stunning body and a smile that puts the night lights to shame.

I’m no queen. I’m a regular girl with a regular job. I just watch him on TV and from the bleachers, season after season.

Girls like me grab a guy like that one in a million times.

My number just came up, and he is as spectacular in bed as he is on the field.

But there’s not a woman in the world who can distract Dash Wallace from the game. Not for a moment. Not even me.

Until the night I do. And everything changes.

 My Review 

☆ I received an ARC via Give Me Books in exchange for an honest review. Thank you! ☆

Hardball Teaser 1

I had been seeing this book all over my friends' book feeds and so out of curiosity, I'd decided to take the plunge upon this novel as well.

Erm, over all, I liked it. I've always been attracted to my sports romance reads that are more than just about the sports itself and cocky jocks with huge egos and a weak female heroine that gets on my nerves....And somehow HardBall managed to pull that off with a charming male heroine and your all around girl next door female lead who both possessed a form of charisma and fragility towards one another that readers will be able to gravitate to and not let go of.

I mean, what every day girl next door would love to capture the heart of a hotshot and ooberly sexy baseball player? I think we all are Vivian's deep inside and can relate to her in many ways. She is very down to earth and easy to like.

As for Dash Wallace, *swoons*, he did initially come off as a d*&k but that thought quickly slips as after we learn the REAL Dash and the vulnerability underneath that facade. He is man with a heart of gold if you let him and will love wholeheartedly for those he truly cares about.

I loved the give and take, push and pull, between Dash and Vivian and found their interactions a mix of realistic and fairytale like but also very witty and entertaining.

Definitely a triumph for my first attempt at a CD Reiss read!!

 About the Authors 

CD Reiss Profile

CD Reiss is a USA Today bestseller. She still has to chop wood and carry water, which was buried in the fine print. Her lawyer is working it out with God but in the meantime, if you call and she doesn't pick up she's at the well hauling buckets.

Born in New York City, she moved to Hollywood, California to get her master's degree in screenwriting from USC. In case you want to know, that went nowhere but it did give her a big enough ego to write novels.

She's frequently referred to as the Shakespeare of Smut which is flattering but hasn't ever gotten her out of chop-ping that cord of wood.

If you meet her in person, you should call her Christine.
