I am in LOVE with this ducking series yall!! I love how all of these ladies have interweaved (interwoven?) so many worlds and characters into this series and then created new series within this world. As a certified series addict, I am in awe! The banter is top notch. The spice scenes are wonderfully delicious. The buildup is great. How the women are all there for each other- it's just so great. I laughed and swooned while reading this one. 

We knew sparks were going to fly with Cortney and Dylan at the end of book 1. I am looking at you Beckett and all of your scheming and how it is paying off LOL. I loved Dylan's quirkiness and how she just took what she wanted which was a one night stand with the hot catcher for the Revs. She leaves at the end of the night satisfied, but Cortney finds himself unable to stop thinking about her. He wants more- he wants to get to know her. He is intrigued like he has never been before, and when he finds out she is pregnant he is happy. Dylan expects him to only want to be involved peripherally so she is pleasantly when Cortney asks to move in. He wants to be there with her as much as he can during the season. 

So they do it. He moves in. She resists her attraction to him. She can't want more. She has been hurt before from a family with money. She knows how this will go. Except Cortney keeps surprising her. He clearly is also attracted to her. He is being a gentleman. He is trying with Liam (her son). They decide to not fight it anymore and really give their relationship a try. She freaks out though when his family wants to meet her. Not only do they want to meet her, they want her to come to a gala his mom is throwing. This gives her all kind of anxiety because of what has happened with Liam's dad but the entire Miller family proves her wrong- that scene made me SMILE so BIG. 

This was a wonderful story! I loved the cast of side characters and have already bought the Fall Out. Jenni has a new series that follows the rest of the Revs' players. I also was intrigued to learn that some of the players Cortney met from his old team ALSO have books. The love that Cortney and Dylan ended up blossoming into was just beautiful. I love that he moved into the crazy house with her. That he never complained. That he was doing it to prove himself to her and to Liam and how it WORKED. I highly recommend this series if you haven't started it yet!
