Description

A sizzling story of everyone's favorite couple from amazing Stephanie Evanovich's New York Times bestseller Big Girl Panties: hunky professional baseball player Chase Walker and his sassy wife Amanda.

When pro baseball player Chase Walker first meets Amanda at her restaurant, it's love at first sight. While Amanda can't help noticing the superstar with the Greek-god-build, he doesn't have a chance of getting to first—or any other—base with her. A successful entrepreneur who's built her business from scratch, Amanda doesn't need a Prince Charming to sweep her off her feet. And a curvy girl who likes to cook and eat isn't interested in being around the catty, stick-thin herd of females chasing Chase and his teammates.

But Chase isn't about to strike out. A man who isn't interested in playing the field, he's a monogamist who wants an independent woman like Amanda. His hopes rally when she discovers that squeaky-clean Chase has a few sexy and very secret pre-game rituals that turn the smart, headstrong businesswoman on—and into his number one fan.

Then a tabloid discovers the truth and turns their spanking good fun into a late- night punchline. Is Amanda ready to let loose and swing for the fences? Or will the pressure of Chase's stardom force them to call it quits?

fullDescription

A sizzling story of everyone's favorite couple from amazing Stephanie Evanovich's New York Times bestseller Big Girl Panties: hunky professional baseball player Chase Walker and his sassy wife Amanda.

When pro baseball player Chase Walker first meets Amanda at her restaurant, it's love at first sight. While Amanda can't help noticing the superstar with the Greek-god-build, he doesn't have a chance of getting to first—or any other—base with her. A successful entrepreneur who's built her business from scratch, Amanda doesn't need a Prince Charming to sweep her off her feet. And a curvy girl who likes to cook and eat isn't interested in being around the catty, stick-thin herd of females chasing Chase and his teammates.

But Chase isn't about to strike out. A man who isn't interested in playing the field, he's a monogamist who wants an independent woman like Amanda. His hopes rally when she discovers that squeaky-clean Chase has a few sexy and very secret pre-game rituals that turn the smart, headstrong businesswoman on—and into his number one fan.

Then a tabloid discovers the truth and turns their spanking good fun into a late- night punchline. Is Amanda ready to let loose and swing for the fences? Or will the pressure of Chase's stardom force them to call it quits?

        Starred review from August 4, 2014
        It's easy to fall in love with this flirty, swoon-worthy tale of the vivacious couple readers first met in 2013's Big Girl Panties. One witty exchange is all it takes to have pro baseball player Chase Walker head over heels for super-hot restaurant owner Amanda Cole. Amanda fights her attraction to Chase until she runs out of excuses, but she still wonders whether he has a hidden flaw. After a lively jousting session turns to verbal foreplay and then to a madly erotic spanking lovemaking all-nighter, the two swoon through a series of heartfelt discussions and tantalizing erotic escapades. Then a video of their private romps goes viral, and the ensuing scandal could tear them apart. Evanovich entertains with plentiful humor and appeals to the reader's romantic side. Comedy, passion, and an irresistible couple make for a home run read.
