ALL OF ME is Book one in Jennifer Bernard's Love Between
the
Bases series. This is the first book that I've read by
Jennifer Bernard, but after reading ALL OF ME I am eager to
read the next in the series. ALL OF ME is full of the kind
of wise-cracking, sexy swagger athletes you'd hope for in a
book about baseball players. However, this is also a story
about two people who have been hurt in the past and had to
overcome obstacles before finding each other. ALL OF ME is
heavy hitting when it comes to romance and intense drama.
Caleb Hart and Sadie Merritt have so much in common. They
have both been burned badly in the past by people they
should have been able to trust. The circumstances were
wildly different but the feelings of shame and betrayal are
very similar. They are also good people who are very loyal
and understand the importance of family and the need for
stability. I love that the story is told from both points
of view so that the reader has a window into their souls
and a better understanding of them. I like how, even though
he has typical flaws, Caleb treats Sadie with gentleness
and respect.
ALL OF ME differs from other sports-themed contemporary
romances I've read because of the clear villains in the
story. There are some very bad men in ALL OF ME who are
determined to bring down Sadie and Caleb. I think this
element of conflict adds drama to the story as well as help
to define several of the characters. Some characters, like
Donna and Mike, are immediately likable while others become
more interesting as the story progresses. I love how all of
Caleb's teammates pull together in the end when it counts
the most.
ALL OF ME is a high octane love story with great
characters. The hero and heroine make a perfect match and
they are incredibly deserving of their happy ending. The
romance is both extremely sexy and sweet at the same time.
I look forward to future books in this "Love Between the
Bases" series by Jennifer Bernard to see what might be in
store for some of Caleb's teammates like Mike.
Jennifer Bernard, the USA Today bestselling author of the
Bachelor Firemen series, scores another homerun with a
brand-new series about sexy, single baseball players.
Playing for the Kilby Catfish is hotshot pitcher Caleb
Hart's last chance to salvage his career after a major
league meltdown. But the day of his opener with the minor
league team, Caleb strikes out with the gorgeous woman who
is delivering a petition to run the unruly Catfish out of
town. Now, to stay in the lineup, Caleb will need to score
big with the feisty brunette he can't keep out of his
thoughts.
After the nasty lies Sadie Merritt's rich ex-boyfriend
spread about her all over town, she's lucky to have a job at
all. She can't afford to screw it up by falling for the
player who is supposed to be helping her change the image of
the fun-loving Catfish. But that's easier said than done
when Caleb's voice alone is enough to make her pulse race.
And when he surprises her with a mind-blowing kiss, she
knows there's no turning back.
