He’s not looking. She’s been burned. But sparks fly, and they decide to go on a date. Just this once.

When professional baseball player Axel Diaz travels back to Belltown University for a friend’s wedding, he’s not planning on bringing a date. Until he meets Brighton West, the flight attendant who he can’t get off his mind. Although dubbed “Cold Axe” by some of his female fans, Axel asks Brighton to be his date to the wedding, all the while wondering why of all times and places he is breaking his no-dating streak. But the more he gets to know Brighton, the more he realizes she may be the one woman who can melt his cold heart.

Welcome to Belltown! Six baseball players meet in the college town of Belltown, Massachusetts, becoming best friends, their lives intertwining as they each get called up to the Major Leagues. Follow Sawyer, Cole, Axel, David, Ryker, and Levi in these six swoony sports romances.


My Review: 5 Stars

I adore this series and these rough-and-tumble softies who play professional baseball! At the surface, they all seem to have it all--they have good looks, talent, humor, a pack of great friends, and women all over the place. But each story delves deeper into the life of one player at a time and allows the reader to really get to know these men and what I've found so far--they aren't perfect at all, they each have issues, and they're even more lovable than ever! 

This story tackles Axel Diaz's story--the shortstop. It's true that he has a no-dating streak, but there are good reasons why and when Brighton catches his eye, that's all over. I loved the differences between these two characters and the way they each complement each other's strengths and weaknesses. These are some solid characters and the sweet, tender cores they each have only serves to build upon a passionate first attraction. The magnetic chemistry is definitely swoony!

I loved watching them both interact with the Belltown Six group and I can't wait to read the rest of the stories!
