Throwing the Curve (Playing for Keeps Book 2) by Lauren Fraser – Review by Donya Pedigo

Throwing the Curve by Lauren Fraser
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In all honesty, I’m not much into sports romances, but the concept of these books had me so intrigued that I had to read this series and wow, am I glad I did. Lauren Fraser has written this series so well that I truly connected to the characters and was invested in their stories.

When I read the description of this book I was like a moth to a flame. I had to know how two people who were thrown together because of the actions of a selfish jerk were gonna pretend to be a couple and why would Ryan (the main hero) even bother to help out this stranger?

Peyton finds herself at a party with a married man, which completely baffles her that she could be so stupid as to not have known. Ryan, the star pitcher, goes above and beyond for his teammates, so he ends up trying to help his cheating teammate by fake dating the girl he was cheating with. Peyton and Ryan are now thrown together and neither is that happy about it, though as time goes on they can’t deny the chemistry they have. Will a fake relationship turn into a real one that neither of them could see coming, or is it safer to move on and forget this whole ordeal? Even if you’re like me and not so much into sports books, I’d definitely say check this out, because if you like a book with drama, romance, chemistry, and enemies to lovers, then you are in for a treat.
