From The Book Junkie Reads . . . Getting Wound Up . . .
I was not familiar with either series but getting into this I became aware right away that there was a lot to both. Sports jocks, sassy women, protective instincts on both sides made for a sexy, fun, flirty read. I was happy that I got up early to obtain and read this one. Friend of a sibling to friend to lover to more. I would say that this was a read to have in your collection if you fancy these types of relationships.
I found transitions to be good. The flow from one POV to the next flowed very well together. It was a bit difficult to separate the two authors. Their works meshed together. It read as one single read not two reads slapped together. I have to admit to wanting to get my hands on both of these series and read them from the beginning to get myself up to this point.

Caitlyn
Murray has never let on that she's had fantasies about her brother's friend Eli
Anderson for years. She'd do anything for the sexy baseball player who walked
away from stardom to stay in Sapphire Falls and take care of his family. But
she and Eli are friends. Just friends.
So
when her brother hatches a plan to get Eli to the pro baseball try-out for the
Kilby Catfish and another chance at his dream, Caitlyn is all in. After all,
what's a little kidnapping among friends?
A
spot on the pitcher's mound for the Catfish isn't the only tempting thing about
the spontaneous road trip. Eli already knows that Caitlyn is as sweet as the
candies she makes for the Sapphire Falls bakery, but alone with her overnight
in the tiny motel room in Kansas, it's impossible to resist the urge to take a
little taste.
But
when that taste leads to falling for the girl next door just as his front door
is moving hundreds of miles away, can Eli really have it all? Or do they have
too many strikes against them?

Caitlyn
took her third shot. The look on her face as she swallowed the liqueur was
adorable.
“How
many more shots do you need?” she asked.
He
frowned. “What?”
“Well,
it took two to get you to kiss me. You just had your third. I’m wondering how
many you need to take me to bed.”
He
just stared at her. He blinked. He was pretty much raring to go right now,
actually. “How many do you need?”
She
gave him a smile that wasn’t a bit tipsy. And was fully seductive. “I didn’t
need even one, Eli.”
It
was like his cock was voice-activated.
All she’d done was talk and he
was rock hard. “Damn, Cait.”
“You
can’t be completely surprised.”
Was
he surprised? That she was attracted to him? That she wanted to sleep with him?
Yeah,
he fucking was. Because if his mind had ever even started to go in that
direction, he would have shut it down.
“I
don’t need anything to want you,” he said honestly. “I’m going to need a few
more to get me past that.”
She
took a long draw on her beer. After she
swallowed, she nodded. “Okay, well, I’m going to need two more to get to
drunk-enough-to-fall-asleep-even-knowing-you’re-half-naked-in-the-next-bed and
drunk-enough-to-not-even-get-up-in-the-night-for-the-bathroom.”
Ah
yes, the bathroom last night. As if that had been far from his mind all day.
“Two
more it is,” he agreed, even as his body screamed at him to shut the hell up.
If
he kissed her again, if he kept going … well, from the look on Caitlyn’s face,
they both knew where that was going to lead them.
She
ate a fry and took a drink of beer, then licked her lips clean of the salt.
An
image of her on her knees, those lips and that tongue wetting some other
things, flashed through his mind. He coughed and shook his head.
Then
she raised her hand to the waitress again. She held up two fingers and waved
them between her and Eli.
The
girl brought four more shots over and set them in the middle of the table.
Caitlyn
picked one up. “Okay, moment of truth. We drink these shots and we go to the
hotel, to two separate beds, and home to Sapphire Falls tomorrow as friends. Or
we don’t take these shots and we go back to the hotel to one bed. And then go home to Sapphire Falls tomorrow as friends.”
