About this listen

They say opposites attract. Someone needs to tell that to Emerson Scott.

Gavin

All I ever wanted was to play ball. When an act of sheer stupidity took that dream away, I thought I’d never bounce back. But now, I have the opportunity to coach an up-and-coming phenom, and I'm giving it all I've got. The fact that I've been lusting after his smoking-hot sister only sweetens the deal. Emerson may be buttoned up like a school librarian, but I play my best when I’m under pressure...and I always bring the heat.

Emerson

Never lose focus. Never lose control. Those are the first two rules in my carefully calculated plan for success. Finding myself thrown into the role of guardian for my little brother was not part of that plan. But I can adjust for Jay’s sake. I’m not about to let one change make me lose sight of my goals. Too bad Jay’s hot young baseball coach doesn’t seem to give a fig about my plans. He has one of his own - and it includes me. Gavin Monroe may play like a pro, but that boy will never win this game.

Do opposites really attract? Give this book a listen and you will see they do! Gavin was an up and coming baseball star when things went awry. Now with the ability to coach the most talented young players, he is scouting and sees Jay. He needs the permission of his guardian, and when he meets Emerson, the attraction is palpable. But "Emmy" is very career driven and does not have time to date. Can Gavin change her mind? Talk about a fun listen. Stewart continues her Carolina Connections series with a witty, romantic story. I love how these two play off of each other, be it in texting or in person. They are on fire with the slow burn and the constant bantering. The foreplay is evident in their banter and it leads to explosive chemistry. I also love the secondary plot of Emmy and her father. It's very realistic giving us a true look at the pressure she puts herself under. This is a fantastic listen, and I highly recommend it.

Kelsey Navarro gives an amazing performance of this story. Her abilities only continue to grow, and I love her. She has incredible comedic timing and the books she chooses show the real connection she finds with her characters. Another wonderful performance!

Emmy & Gavin!

This was a enjoyable continuation of this series. Great to meet new characters and for old characters to reappear. I enjoyed the storyline and development of the relationship between Gavin and Emerson. The book was humorous, even making my husband laugh when he entered the room and over heard some of the book as I was listening.
I have always struggled with the narration of the books a bit, taking me a while to get used to the accent as I'm not from the US. However I think this narration was my favourite so far.

Enjoyable continuation of this series

Totally fell for this romantic comedy. I'm not a sports person but I loved this audiobook. It had just the right amount. Really felt like I knew the hero and understood what he'd been through. Fantastic characters throughout the whole book! Sweet and fun read. Awesome narrator!
