I’ve truly been looking forward to reading this story,after immediately being sold on its “older main character” aspect…I was NOT disappointed! Phew 😮💨 let me tell you,there is something so incredibly refreshing about reading entire pages of dialogue, featuring conversations in which emotional maturity reigns supreme.
Ross Davis is a former all-star pitcher,turned coach.
A 47 year old widower,father of two college aged sons,
and straight up burnt out on the grind of travel and vapid supermodel situationships.
Verona Huxley is a 45 year old widow,with two grown daughters and a career writing romance novels…atleast, when she isn’t experiencing writer’s block.
After an adorably embarrassing elevator meet-cute,these two find out happenstance leads to second chances and a new outlook on luck and love.
There was a lot of anticipation,but very little angst and tension in this love story. It felt natural,and the progression of their developing friendship and romance wasn’t rushed.
The story flowed seamlessly,and I found myself endlessly smiling at how wonderful this characters were,each in their own right.
I wish there were more books exactly like this.
Written by women who have experienced a bit of life,love and the ensuing heartache it can bring. I want to be friends with the women in this book. I want to have a beer and watch a baseball game with the guys. It’s just a feel good novel that reminds me why I take true pleasure in reading,and I enjoyed it immensely.
Well Done
