If you know anything about me, you know that fake dating x sports romance is totally my niche. Swing and a Kiss knocked this out of the park- baseball pun FULLY intended! I loved Cassidy and Nate’s love story and simply can’t get enough!
These two are so opposites attract coded from the very start. They each had misconceptions about the other, and it was so fun to see them learn the truer parts of their partner. The fake dating in Swing and a Kiss really allowed Cassidy and Nate to connect without any pressure, and that only served to heighten their connection.
I loved both the baseball arc of Nate’s career choices as well as the arc of Cassidy figuring out her future as an influencer. Their shared love of Cassidy’s late father was meaningful and touching, and it added an extra level of depth to their relationship. This book truly had it all- the spice, the sweet moments, and of course, all the love.
Thank you to Alcove Press for the opportunity to read and review this book! I received a free advance copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions expressed are my own.
