Hard Hitter by Sarina Bowen
4.0

One of my fav second chance romances. Rookie Move is up there but this one, with Lo and Mike, a both older in their late-20s/early-30s, felt more bittersweet – especially with Mike's ex-wife being stricken with terminal cancer just as their divorce is finalized which is why he broke up with Lo. Their coming together again 2 years later was relatively low-angst. The challenges stemmed largely from Mike's antagonistic 13yo daughter but that is resolved fairly quickly. All in all, very satisfying.
