The Third Baseman by Lulu Moore
4.0
The Third Baseman is the first book that I've read by author Lulu Moore and I thought it was an enjoyable read. I won't lie I thought the beginning of the book was a little slow, so it took me a minute to get immersed in the story, but once I was in, I was in.
The main trope of this book was that this is a second chance romance, and from the get go I did not see how they are going to end up together. Because of the way that the male lead, Jupiter Reeves, ended his relationship with Marnie Matthews after he got drafted I was like yeah... She should hate his guts. But as the book goes on and you see their past, and Jupiter's reasons for ending their relationship, I mean he was 18 and she was 16 almost 17 so... don't hate on a teenager for being an idiot.
I loved how grumpy Jupiter was around everyone EXCEPT Marnie. She was the only person who made his happy, and I just thought was so cute. And while Marnie wasn't exactly the sunshine personality that you'd typically find in a grumpy-sunshine trope, I do think when she wasn't mad at Jupiter/around other people she was typically very happy, especially when she's looking at the stars.
