Blushing in the Big Leagues Kindle Edition

I have one simple rule: don’t date professional baseball players. There are no exceptions, no workarounds.

“What if—”
No.
“Could he—”
Nuh-uh.

With a brother in the league, I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the downright horrifying. Those guys might seem tantalizing when they’re in uniform down on the field, hitting grand slams in front of a crowd of adoring fans, but I know better. The huge egos? The insane travel schedules? The veritable buffet of female companions? No ma’am. Professional athletes are best handled at a distance, preferably far enough away that their chiseled jawlines blur into oblivion.

Enter Grant Navarro.

He’s the baseball player to end all baseball players. The one I should have marked with a big red X the first moment I laid eyes on him. Only the night we met (and kissed—oops), I didn’t know he was my brother’s newest teammate. Imagine my shock when I realized the sexiest man in Manhattan was officially off limits. Just my luck!

Let the record show that I had every intention of following my rule and staying away from Grant. When he smiled that irresistible smile and those dimples popped, I stood my ground. When he made it very clear he’d love to pick up where we left off the night we met, I said, Hold it right there, partner. When he messaged me all sorts of naughty things on Instagram, I logged out of that app so fast I dented my iPhone screen.

Baseball players are bad, bad, bad.

So tell me why giving in to Grant just for a night, getting one taste of what could be starts to seem not just tempting, but downright mandatory.

Yeah, about that one simple rule…haven’t you heard?
Rules are meant to be broken.

Adorable, quick read with a bit of good steam and good character development. Seven more words are required. Good lord.

Let me preface my review by stating (and I don’t think I am alone in this request): we need a story for Nick and his dad bod, lol. Nick was hilarious, sweet, loyal and overall lovable. His antics made me laugh more than the others. I laughed at both proposals when he asked Sophia and Tate if they said yes, lol. Like they’d say no?!
I assume Dustin and Daphne will get a book, but seriously, I am rooting for Nick and his dad bod.
Now to the main characters: Tate and Grant. Tate is the younger sister of Luke Allen, the main character of the story before this one. Unfortunately, Tate wasn’t as likable or lovable as Chloe.
She was so hot and cold with Grant that I felt bad for the guy. She used and led Michael on, when she clearly had feelings for another man. I get she had reservations about dating a ball player, but don’t date another person when you have unresolved feelings for someone else. Michael deserved better, as did Grant.
I also thought it was ridiculous and hypocritical that she got jealous of Grant going out. She pushed him away and told him she wasn’t interested, and then threw a tantrum when he gave her what she asked for. Her behavior after Grant declared himself at the park was also annoying. Why does Grant have to fight for or call her? He had done so many times leading up to it and told her he wanted to be with her; she was the one giving him mixed signals and kissing other guys. I felt that Tate should have been the one to contact Grant and declare herself. Instead she gets drunk and acts like a child with a tantrum. P/s the drunk antics aren’t funny.
The moments that made this story funny/heartwarming were: Harper, Dustin and Nick, the guys helping plan Josh’s proposal and freak out over the mannequin, and the epilogue.
Lastly, Grant. He made this story a 4 star. He was so steady, sweet and loyal. I loved how he called his dad after every game, took the time to talk to Luke before dating Tate officially, and never wavered in his affection for Tate (even though she was off kissing and dating another guy). I loved that he was about the game, and being a good person, and didn’t care about the fame. I loved how he was loyal to all the guys after just meeting them, and thought with his heart and head before anything else. Grant was an amazing hero!

Grant may be my newest favorite. Both characters are great. The book was light and an easy read! Can't wait to read another RS Grey!

This one almost hit it out of the park. Baseball's my favorite sport, I can make all the jokes I want. But anyway, I enjoyed seeing more of Luke, Chloe, and Harper. As well, getting to know Tate (is that not short for something?) and Grant was fun. The story is again dual POV, always the best.

What was really missing was a true barrier to their romance: Tate's job as a NICU nurse. C'mon! Pair that with a pro baseball player and you have a recipe for romantic chaos. Instead, we get decent romantic tension, a faux work romance, and disapproving big brother. Tate's no-baseball-players rule was half-hearted at best.

The chemistry was solid, I'll always give RS Grey props there, but Grant was a bit too pushy on the alpha side of things. I did love the elevator scenes though. Also, their Instagram flirting was fun.

Harper was a fun voice of wisdom, even as an eight-year-old. Wonder if Dustin and Daphne will get their own book, strongly hinting that way.

I loved this book. It was sexy, sweet, and the chemistry was actually shown. I loved the main characters and storyline. Grant was the best. Sexy, loyal, straight-forward. Tate is a sort of put together hot mess at times, others she's a great friend, loyal and sweet. He's a baseball player, she's a nurse. The book has low angst and lots of feeling.
This author used to be one click for me, but lately not so much. I haven't cared for the heroines as much and a little juvenile at times. This book hit it out of the park and I read in one sitting.
Dual POV, steamy, sweet, HEA, No cliffhanger.

Good Read

Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2023

This book was a pretty good read, but not my favorite by Grey. Tate’s character came across as very immature and frustrating for most of the story. I loved Grant so much, he was perfect, but he put up with way too much back and fourth from Tate that he didn’t deserve.
I did not like how this book ended, we spent so much time on the will they won’t they and then all of a sudden it skips ahead months and gives us a few pages of what happened, then skipped half a year for the epilogue. It was very disappointing. I don’t mind all the build up, but I felt like we were robbed of a lot of time together.
We also didn’t get much back story from either character. We had maybe one conversation with Grant’s dad, but Tate never came up. I guess if you read Tate’s brother Luke’s story you would know about him, but I didn’t so I was only given what was in this book, which was not much. Those are the little things I like in books that help to connect us to characters. And I felt like they were missing.
I enjoyed the first 80% of the book, but the ending was just so lack luster.
3.5 Stars rounded up for me.

R.S Grey is one of my favorite authors so any book she writes is an automatic read for me, but I truly enjoy reading every single one! The way she writes her characters makes the stories so fun to read and it feels like you actually know these characters. I loved Tate in Three Strikes and You’re Mine so getting to read her story was the best! I laughed, I got mad, I swooned, everything I want in my romantic comedies. 10/10 recommend! I also really hope Rachel continues and gives us Daphne and Dustin’s story next!

Tate and her list

Reviewed in Canada on May 24, 2023

Tate wants a relationship but only with those that check off her list... Her friends want to see her loosen up so they dare her...

What does she catch GRANT, but it'll take her sometime to really appreciate and tear up that list.

After being introduced to Tate in her brother's story I definitely was excited to finally see her fall in love. Now I cannot wait to see Daphne and maybe Dustin together?

There is a party where Tate has been dared to find and guy and kiss him and when she sees Grant standing near the bar she decides he is the one. He thinks she is lovely and she makes him smile when all of a sudden she goes in for the kiss. It becomes that kiss that defines their future but she then walks away. Grant is a new team member for the baseball team and has just met the sister of his new team mate. Tate has always declared that athletes of any kind are off her list of men to date. Grant has his work cut out trying to persuade her that he is worth it. He makes her feel different and it frightens her especially when her brother is always trying to protect her. Lovely read.

I absolutely loved the beginning of the story. I fell in love with Grant… it’s a shame there wasn’t more chapters from his point of view.

Nevertheless, it was an easy read, fun and entertaining. Loved it!

The beginning didn’t look bad, but the characters look like teenagers rather than adults. They were so fake that I couldn’t finish it.
