Annie Lucas and her dad love baseball. When an old family
friend offers Annie's dad, an old baseball player whose
career ended when it barely started due to cancer, Annie
and
her dad move to Missouri. While there, she meets rookie
pitcher and potential bad boy, Jason Brody. While her
father
coaches him, sparks catch between Annie and Brody, but in
the game of love, there's no telling who will strike out
and
who will hit a home run.
As a big fan of Julie Cross's Letters to Nowhere series,
WHATEVER LIFE THROWS AT YOU caught my interest
immediately.
What I hoped would be another great read from her turned
into one of my favorite novels ever. Annie Lucas is witty,
sharp, competitive, and caring, making an ideal main
character for those who can't get enough sass and
fist-punching-in-the-air, heck-yeah moments. Both love
interest and lovable character on his own is Jason Brody,
who steals all the bases for sexiest and sweetest
dialogue.
Cross employs a slow burn, steady build type romance for
these two that will keep you up at all hours turning the
pages and hoping for a kiss.
With all high points that come with this novel from the
romance to the strong family dynamics, the subtle nuances
of
the plot and prose will stir the heart of many readers.
Annie's journey in learning more about herself as an
individual, as a daughter, as a friend, and as a
significant
other is full of quick turns and unexpected obstacles, but
the beauty in which her character develops is
breathtaking.
For those desperate for a realistic and beautiful story,
WHATEVER LIFE THROWS AT YOU should be at the top of the
list
of books to read. Julie Cross creates a stunning story of
love, baseball, and finding strength enough on your own to
share with others. This one will stay on my shelf a long,
long time, right next to Katie McGarry and Abbi Glines.
Seventeen-year-old Annie Lucas's life is completely
upended
the moment her dad returns to the major leagues as the new
pitching coach for the Kansas City Royals. Now she's
living
in Missouri (too cold), attending an all-girls school (no
boys), and navigating the strange world of professional
sports. But Annie has dreams of her own—most of which
involve placing first at every track meet…and one starring
the Royals' super-hot rookie pitcher.
But nineteen-year-old Jason Brody is completely, utterly,
and totally off-limits. Besides, her dad would kill them
both several times over. Not to mention Brody has
something
of a past, and his fan club is filled with C-cupped
models,
not smart-mouthed high school “brats” who can run the
pants
off every player on the team. Annie has enough on her
plate
without taking their friendship to the next level. The
last
thing she should be doing is falling in love.
But baseball isn't just a game. It's life. And sometimes,
it
can break your heart…
