“I respect you as a trainer and a human being. And, most importantly of all, I am attracted to you in a way that makes it hard to breathe when you’re close.” That was when he paused to take a breath. “I want you in a way that makes rolling into bed every night without fantasizing about crawling over your body impossible. That’s why.”HOMERUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNN!! Nicole Williams scores a major league run in her newest sports romance, Stealing Home. As a big fan of Nicole Williams, I knew that I couldn’t wait to read this book. And if you know me, I am a big sports fan and I LOVEEEEEE baseball so of course you know I will this devour it in one sitting. Nicole Williams starts Stealing Home with a run batted in as she introduces two MCs that I instantly fell in loved with. Right off the bat, I became a fan of Luke Archer and Allie Eden.
“I can’t promise you forever. I can’t promise any length of time actually, but I can promise honesty and commitment. The rest, I don’t know. We’ll just have to wait and see.”Allie Eden is San Diego’s Shocker newest athletic trainer. She knows that she has to work really hard to get recognized in a career that is a prominent male dominated work field. Allie loves baseball and is good at her job and she doesn’t want anything to jeopardize her career. And so when San Diego Shocker most valuable player, Luke Archer takes notice of her… Allie has a hard time resisting him. And how could she when Archer offers her his bat and balls to play.
“One kiss. One minute. I knew that if I let Luke Archer past my walls, he would consume me. I never would have guessed it could happen so quickly. So completely. One taste. One touch. And he owned me.”Luke Archer is an all-star baseball player. He lives and breathes baseball. Baseball is his passion that is until a sexy athletic trainer walks into his life. Allie challenges Luke and he loves that. And so when he crosses the line with Allie, he knew that one taste of her was not enough. Luke is ready to step up to the plate and explore this relationship with Allie. But what happens when Allie begins to have doubts about Luke and his intentions? Will Luke be able to show Allie that she is first base, second base, third base and most importantly she is home plate?
“Sex with Luke had been many things, from filthy to redefining, but the one thing it had always been was transcendent.”Stealing Home was indeed one sexy sports romance that had heat, passion, banter, and of course a little angst to help shake things up. Nicole Williams didn’t steal home but she delivered multiple runs and a home run to add to the scoreboard. This is one of those reads that made you smile big especially when you get to the epilogue. So if you are a fan of baseball that has a strong heroine and a sexy cocky hero with a heart of gold then this book is definitely for you. Are you ready to step up to the plate and steal home?
