REVIEW: Moonshot by Alessandra Torre

July 5, 2016

Synopsis:

Baseball isn’t supposed to be a game of life and death…

The summer that Chase Stern entered my life, I was seventeen. The daughter of a legend, the Yankees were my family, their stadium my home, their dugout my workplace. My focus was on the game. Chase … he started out as a distraction. A distraction with sex appeal poured into every inch of his six foot frame. A distraction who played like a god and partied like a devil.

I tried to stay away. I couldn’t.

Then, the team started losing.

Women started dying.

And everything in my world broke apart.

My Review

When I think of sports romance, I usually think of a light, flirty, fun read. Moonshot takes that and throws it out the window. It’s sports romance, Torre style, and it’s one of my favorites.

Ty and Chase have this insanely intense connection that cannot be ignored, no matter how hard they both try. From their first encounter in the locker room, to their first kiss, their chemistry sizzles. The only problem is when they first meet, Ty is 17, and the team’s ballgirl.

Baseball is the only world Ty knows. She lives and breathes the game. We watch her grow from a tomboy who can oil a glove like a pro to a savvy business woman who hasn’t lost her love of the game.

Chase is the tabloids poster child bad boy. Women, booze, no commitments, Chase is every father’s nightmare for his daughter. You get the feeling that there is more to his story and the face that he shows the world is not a true representation of the heart behind the man.

This story is fast paced and full of enough suspense to keep you guessing right up until the very end. Alessandra took all of my favorite tropes, forbidden romance/suspense/second chance and turned them in to a masterpiece. It’s like watching your favorite movie and never wanting it to end.

Moonshot will have you glued to your Kindle until the very end.

I give Moonshot 5 grand slam kisses
