The Sweet Spot by Bella Matthews

4.0

Bella Matthews does it again with the Sweet Spot - she makes us fall in love with these characters and my only gripe is that we don't get enough. But if you are someone who is dipping their toes back into reading and want a quick, spicy, and captivating sports romance - this series is perfect to start with.

This short novel packs a punch - Brynlee has been a strong, magnanimous character in the other books but here she shines just as bright. I loved her confidence and assurance, even with the health secret she was keeping. Deacon is strong, sexy, and vulnerable, especially when he's in dad mode. He falls hard and fast for Brynlee and she returns those feelings just as quickly.

The spice is perfection and every time he calls her "my wife" I melted. This is a rollercoaster of a story with a lot of emotions but I think what Bella perfects is found family and here is no difference. We get to live in the world of the Sinclair, Kingstons, etc and all of Brynlee's family, cousins and friends play such an important role. They create comfort, fun antics, and even more hilarious banter. Text conversations should be required in all novels.

I'm sad this is the last story in this series but I think it was one of the best. Can't wait to see what Bella creates next!
