Sweet Spot
(Roseville Ramblers #3)
by Staci Hart
I should absolutely, under no circumstances, develop a crush on my co-worker–the grumpy, wolf-daddy, much older high school baseball coach.
First problem? He’s twenty years older than me. Second? I’ve never even been kissed. Third? When I ask him to teach me, he said yes.
In my defense, Grey Brooks is a great coach. As an elementary school librarian, I know more about books than swinging hammers or baseball bats. I thought I was a lost cause, but from showing me how to throw a baseball to fixing up my rickety old house, all he does is teach me. And somewhere between the lessons and the laughter, we become friends. So asking him to teach me to kiss…etc, just makes sense. Right? Right?
He makes rules. Keep it casual. Keep it secret. Keep the feels in check.
But in a small town where everyone’s watching, nothing stays secret for long. Every rule we break blurs the line between lessons and love, the rumors are getting louder, and Grey thinks he’s going to ruin me.
He might be right. But not for the reasons he thinks.
Because there’s more than gossip hiding in Roseville, and by the time I see the danger coming, the only person who can save me is the one everyone says I should stay away from.

Favorite Quotes:
His mama made him join the team when he talked back to her for the last time in Klingon. She told him he had to join the baseball team or move out.
I swear, he says everything he thinks out loud. In the middle of a lesson about the silent e, he raised his hand and asked, Is the e silent because it’s dead?
You’ve ghosted more girls than a haunted house.
You flirt like you’re applying for a job you’re not qualified for…
I am in such deep shit. There aren’t enough shovels.
You didn’t just change my life. You gave me one worth living.

My Review:
I always look forward to reading a Staci Hart tale as it’s guaranteed to be a gleefully fun experience. Her writing is highly entertaining, laced together with clever wit and lively banter, and as a bonus, smoking-hot sensual scenes that leave me gasping with fans on high speed and clutching for hydration. No doubt there must have been a near-constant smirk on my face throughout perusal.
I adored these delightful characters as much as I did their engaging story. They were lovely people and deserved good things. I reveled in my time spent with them and would have eagerly devoured 500 more pages of the same.
Staci has been many things in her life so far — a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, and a waitress. Can’t forget that. She’s also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break many hearts. She’s been a wife, though she’s certainly not the cleanest or the best cook. She’s also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she’s been drinking whiskey. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.
