Bat Boy || Christina Lee
This was such a sweet feel good story! A nice light listen for a Monday!
Brady is the captain of the baseball team and Kellen is the coachs son and bat boy for the team. They are (or course) not meant to fraternize - but rules are meant to be broken.
They have an easy friendship, and both are crushing on each other in secret. Seeing Brady come more and more into his own and figuring out his identity was really nice, Kellen was super supportive while trying to keep boundaries- having been hurt by a jock before, using him to experiment.
Kellen and Brady get closer as friends - and more. Stealing kisses (and other things..) when they can but both feeling conflicted and not wanting to keep things secret. After the team wins a big game, Kellen decides that his love for Kellen is greater than being on the team anymore and losses him in front of everyone and confesses his love - only to have the whole team vote to keep him on the team despite the coaches rules!
““What are we doing?” he asked against my ear.
“Being in love.” He drew back with a gasp, then set me down as if his legs were going to fold on him.
“Are you saying…”
“I’ve been in love with you for weeks, and I’m tired of hiding it.”
“Damn.” He briefly screwed his eyes shut, his muscles going lax. “Me too. I’m so f.cking in love with you.””
This book was so sweet and I can’t wait to read the next one!

CAWPILE: 7.29/10 - 4/5
Este libro me entretuvo MUCHO, es acerca de el hijo del entrenador, que es el asistente del equipo que empieza a tener una relación con uno de los bateadores principales del equipo, que esta en el closet.
Este libro fue sexy, dulce y completamente satisfactorio, es una relación que ambos enseñan al otro que es querer, que esta bien tener dudas y me encanta la delicadeza de Kellan con Brady, al ser su primera relación gay.
El apoyo parental igual fue bonito, en general un libro sexy y dulce.

Eu amei os personagens, a relação deles e a história contada. Gosto que ambos tiveram tempo pra se conhecer melhor e estarem seguros do que queriam.

OMG! THIS BOOK.... THIS BOOK!!!!
This book is the definition of ADORABLE! #NGL
****Highly Recommended Adorableness****
What I loved...
1. The Characters:
- Brady Donavan: Baseball team Captain, goofy, genuinely nice and friendly, has an eye opening revelation once he sets eyes on Kellan. #HmmmMaybeImGay

- Kellan: Math nerd, baseball fanatic, gay and out for the people who count. wears crop tops, make-up and loves to dance. He also has an inconvenient crush on Brady, and Brady doesn't make it easy for him. #Irrisistible

2. The Plot..
So these two boys have a crush on each other, and the other doesn't exactly know. For all Kellan knows, Brady is straight and is just being nice. little does he know, that he has invoked some new alien feelings in Brady ever since he first saw him. Brady doesn't care what his teammates think when he sits by Kellan, or when he tries to include him in team activities. the problem is, the coach... Both are fiercely loyal but... #TheHeartWantsWhatItWants
3. The Romance....
ONE WORD....ADORABLE!
The banter, the jokes, the ribbing, the texts, the sweetness, the intimacy ... #NeedISayMore
The way Brady didn't give up on befriending Kellan, and the way Kellan couldn't keep him at arm's length, despite his Dad's rules, who happens to be the coach,. Kellan resisted because he doesn't at to disappoint his father, because he didn't want to be a straight boy's experiment. But Brady wouldn't let him. He was relentless with his sweetness, with his shyness, with his vulnerability and his goofiness. All this broke through Kellan's walls until all that mattered was being together and experiencing feelings both of them didn't expect nor feel before. #AFirstTimeForEverthing
4. The Steam..
I'm a sucker for a gay virgin. This didn't disappoint. Brady was beautiful in his vulnerability, in the rawness of his feelings and the genuineness of his fumbling. He was honest, even when he was overwhelmed and Kellan was the perfect counterpart. Kellan, despite all his hang-ups about being with Brady, embraced their connection, physical or otherwise, and was ever so patient. From the smallest touch to the full-on love making, these guys were the perfect blend of sweet and scorching. #APinchOfSweetASprinkleOfSexy
5. The HEA...
Still swoony, still sweet with a hot scene thrown in the mix... #AllTheSighs
Honorable Mentions:
Kellan being a Math Nerd and a Baseball fan. I loved how Christina just seamlessly kicked the stereotypes to the curb! #BestOfBothWorlds
Brady's Autistic brother. he was such a fresh breathe of air.
Girard and Maclain... #HolyUSTBatman<---- Can't wait for their book!
The supportive families and friends all around. #NoH8
#HappyReading
I received an ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Like all the Christina Lee books I've read in the past, this was a good mix of fluff and smut, angst and realization. I really enjoyed they dynamic between the captain of the baseball team and the bat boy who just happens to be the coach's son. Very cute and sweet read.
