STUMPED (TO LOVE A SPORTSMAN SERIES Book 2) by PAMELA Q. FERNANDES – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Stumped: Love Behind the Wickets by Pamela Q. Fernandes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this heartwarming sports romance which had me hooked from start to finish. The storyline centred around the poster boy for English cricket, the English vice-Captain Claude de Lussan and the women who loves him Delilah Taylor. Claude is rich, smart, handsome, and a great cricketer all of which also makes him slightly arrogant. Delilah’s whole existence revolves around the vice-Captain and after a thrilling and exciting summer with him she finds herself married and then divorced from Claude, who she knows doesn’t love her back. When he enters Delilah‘s world again years later they have a second chance at their relationship but they have many old hurts, resentments and misunderstandings to resolve if they are to have a future together. This story introduced me to the world of English cricket and the players which I found fascinating. The story flowed well and the plot kept me happily turning the pages. I felt immersed in Delilah and Claude’s world as the descriptive narrative made both the setting and the characters come to life for me. I also found the main characters to be likeable and relatable which helped me feel engaged with them and I found myself cheering them on, hoping they would both get their happy ever after.
