My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Heath seems to have it all, a successful career as a baseball player but one thing is missing , someone to come home to …

It’s now off season for Heath and he’s got no real hobbies , most of team mates have families or better halves so he gets a little bored and lonely at this time and his sister , Hannah is about to have a baby , he’s about to become an uncle ❣️

Grace , a woman with heart , she’s not had it easy with her family but she’s not going to jet them get the better of her and she has a heart for animals so she already won me over 🐾❣️

Now Grace and Heath are no strangers to each other , their paths crossed with the bachelor auction which benefitted the animal shelter and she left a lasting impression on Heath but it seems it went both ways but Grace believes she’s beneath him and gives Heath a hard time in winning her over …

I loved watching Heath encourage Grace and he really got me going with his protective nature of Grace where her family was concerned , they really irked me I must be honest !

Besides and Heath and Grace my heart was stolen by our 4 legged sweetheart Maggie and I think she should get the award for match making ❣️🐾🤣

This was a real feel good read and just what my heart needed !

As with all stories in this series it can be read as a standalone but I prefer to read them all in order.

Heath and Grace was one of my favorites of this series and I think it had to do with Maggie.

I love how the women while sensitive and have insecurities are also strong willed and stick up for themselves. I really enjoyed watching their story unfold.

I really enjoyed this series, and I am sad it has come to an end. I loved this one as much as the first two. The fun “banter” between everyone was my favorite part, it made the book relatable to me. There was lots of chemistry jumping off the pages and just enough romance to keep me wanting more. This author has a new fan, and I can’t wait to see what comes next from her.

I am loving this series! We learned a bit about how Zara and Noah met but now we get to know the inner details and what really happened and why.

These 2 just were an explosion waiting to happen but also Zara brought in her insecurities of never having been in a relationship and what happens if you get hurt. But Noah was perfect and was exactly what she needed.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Not only do I love Bree Kraemer but also the premise that made me laugh at how cute it is that I had to get it.

Heath Bailey is a professional baseball player with a lot of loving friends and family. His team also won a championship. The only thing he does not have is the attention of the girl that he likes.

In his efforts to see her, he adopts a dog from the local shelter.

Grace Dyer, the woman that Heath is trying to get the attention of, was not a big fan of him when they first met. She helped organize an event at the animal shelter and thought Heath to be cocky and arrogant. Seeing him again, her view on him has changed but she doesn’t believe that a relationship between them would work.

With this hilarious premise, how could I not read it? I knew I was going to be in for a treat and I was not disappointed. The meddling family aspect was great and the relationship between Grace and Heath just made me swoon.

This part of a sports romance series. I do not read this series much, though I do enjoy them whenever I do. Books do not have to be read in order, however, after reading this, I plan on reading the previous books.

This was a grand slam of a story, no pun intended. As with the first two books, this was an easy, fast, and enjoyable read! The author creates likable characters and Heath and Grace are no exception.

The attraction between Heath and Grace is undeniable. Heath, for a superstar athlete, is such a worm and genuine character and I loved seeing a softer side to a very “manly” character. Grace has a heart of gold but doesn’t feel “good enough.” Can Heath break down her walls?

I’ve loved this series and the flow to her stories. This one has it all, sweetness, tension, steam, and wonderful characters and storyline!

This book is book three of the series. It can be read as a standalone but you don’t want to miss this series.

Heath has everything he could want. Except someone to share his life with. Of course there is one person he’d like to get to know more but she’s not his biggest fan. Another meeting between Heath and Grace may just change her mind though. Not sure that a relationship could work between them, Grace tries to push him from her mind. What will happen between these two?

This is such a good book. Much like all the other books by Bree Kraemer that I’ve read. You won’t be disappointed. It’s well written and the characters are great. You won’t want to put it down!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bree Kraemer continues the Ground Rule series with this steamy romance. I love that we got to continue with our favorite baseball player’s romance, moving on to Heath and Grace’s story. I love that we start right where we left off with all of our favorite characters from the past books in the series, revisiting Celia and Kyle, Noah and Zara, and finally Heath and Grace. The characters are developed so well, they are just like everyday people, it gives you a peak into the life of a baseball player’s routine. They work hard to practice before the season starts and must maintain their physical fitness by having a consistent workout routine. I love that we get to see this side of their lives and how their lives are so busy that there is not always time to find their soul mates. This book was hands down a great read, I had a hard time putting it down from the second that I started reading it. The plot of the story is very obvious from the beginning, and the setting is portrayed so well, I can imagine all those adorable animals in the animal shelter where Grace manages, working herself beyond what even she can physically handle most days. In walks Heath, the baseball player who she cannot stand from the last book’s Star Auction, to help save her from her own family. Will Grace be grateful for Heath’s help, or will she continue to push him away, denying her feelings for him? This was such a great enemy to a lover’s romance, that keeps you intrigued right to the very last page!

This book is book three in this sports romance set. If you have not read the previous two books in the series, you should, as you will love those characters just as much as the ones in this story. But if you choose to not do that, you can read this as a stand alone. The author does a great job connecting the reader with the characters. This was a quick book and just the right amount of romance to keep you interested. Can’t wait to read more by this author.

I love this series and I also love how it intertwines with other series the author has written. Grand Slam is here and the author didn’t disappoint. I love it. Not my favorite in the series but still lots of love.
What happens when privileged meets someone from the other side of the tracks. That’s this romance, with some baseball thrown in.
Heath and Grace claim to hate the other. But do they really? He’s a baseball player. She’s a director of the LA animal shelter who’s struggling to get by. What could either of these two have in common? More than they realize. The main question is will stubbornness and insecurities get in the way of happy ever after?
Grand Slam is the third book of a series, but holds its own as a standalone novel. It’s not necessary to read the predecessors, but I would. Makes it more fun. Brings on the joy of a new author. While you check this book out, I’m going to check out other books by this author. Enjoy!

Grand Slam is the third book in the Ground Rules series in which the subject matter centers around romance, and sports. Each book in the series can be read as a standalone but it’s nice to read them in order as a lot of the characters are in other books throughout the series, which I liked. This book is focused on Heath, who is a previous character, and grace whom we had not heard as much about. It’s definitely an enemies to lovers as they definitely rub each other the wrong way in the beginning and are super confused as to why they feel the way they do when they are together. This was another great addition to the series and I really enjoyed how the author pulled me into the characters lives and really made me care about what happened to them and I was definitely cheering them on in my mind as I was reading. I also really like how the endings are always pulled together, happy, and complete.

Grand Slam (Ground Rule Book 3)

Baseball, animals and love make for a good story in my opinion and this has all three of those qualities.

Heath starting pitcher for LA has a pretty good life. His team won the championship the previous year, has a great group of friends and family including a new baby in the family. But he realizes he is missing something or someone. Enter Grace and her animals at the animal shelter she is in charge of.

They didn’t start off on the right foot, but slowly things shifted much to her dismay. She didn’t want a relationship and fought it in every imaginable way.

They fit together in my opinion from the moment they met and I was hoping they would find a way to make it happen.

I have enjoyed all of the books I have read by Ms. Kraemer and have no doubt I will enjoy all of the future books I will read.

I LOVE Heath and Grace so much! It shouldn’t come as a surprise to me since I love this author, but this was such a cute sports romance. I was immediately pulled into the story and relating to the characters even though I’m far from athletic. Heath seems like the nice, respectful young man who lets Grace knows his feelings but doesn’t pressure her into making any decisions right away. You’ll feel the chemistry jump right off the pages. This is the third book in the series, and although it can be read as a standalone without confusion, you’ll be running back to grab the previous books anyways! I highly recommend reading Grand Slam even if sports aren’t your thing because this author knows how to pull you in.

This is a quick short read, possibly a beach read for those needing a good book for beach days!
Absolutely love this author and need to continue reading her series. Even though this book is number three in the series, this one can be considered stand alone. Heath appears to be a cocky, baseball player who ends up with a fixation on the one girl he can’t stop thinking about.Grace meets Heath at a work event and although he appears arrogant, she can’t stop thinking of him. Kraemer definitely has a way in her words to give characters depth, relationship connections and humor. I truly enjoyed the entire series!

This book was okay. Pros: it’s cute, it’s a sports romance

Cons: the chapters are titled with names like dual POV but it’s written in third person. If you’re going to have a dual POV book then make it from their POV. I also found it a little strange that the MMC was getting a hard on just from thinking about a girl in the room he was about to walk into when his sister was in labor.

All in all I’d give it a 3.5/5 stars. It’s a cute quick read.

The author Bree Kraemer did an amazing job on Zara Dewan’s character and on Noah Ashe. All that Zara wanted was fun in a non-relationship but love can bite you back when you ignore the fact that there is always one male or female who wants you but for a serious relationship. Bree gave these two characters life in a world where sometimes you can have both or nothing at all.
Zara is my type of girl who wants to be free with no strings attached but having someone to love you is not that bad at all… Love this book.

I was a little skeptical going into reading this book since I haven’t read the 2 preceding in the series. I was pleasantly surprised when I didn’t feel like I was missing anything by not having read the others. I loved the storyline and main characters. I do wish there was more background than there was, more detail in childhood and so on with both main characters. Yes you get the over all picture but I feel like it was glanced over and just got the bare minimum for the story to work. Kind of a spoiler but I didn’t like the drama with the brother as there wasn’t a whole lot of detail and it could have been better. Overall I really liked this book and finished it in about 5 hours or maybe a little less.

This is the third book in the Ground Rule series and it’s another great one! As always, the author’s writing is easy to follow, flowing nicely and descriptive. The chemistry between Heath and Grace jumps off the page, and you can’t help but love them together.

I enjoyed seeing the ‘typical arrogant jock’ have more to him than meets the eye, and when you get past the initial exterior, there’s more to him than expected. Heath and Grace pair up nicely and you can’t help but root for them.

I can’t believe I’ve caught up on the series and am left wanting more yet again.

This book can be read as a stand alone but is the 3rd book in the Ground Rule Series. Grace is a hardworking independent woman who loves her animal shelter and all the animals that come through it. Heath is a professional baseball player. They met months ago at a fundraiser. Sparks ignite when they run into each other again when Heaths sister has a baby. This wonder story has enemies to lovers, sports romance, adorable animals, and spice sprinkled all in. Another wonderful story to add to this series!

This was a great 5 star read. Once I started I finished pretty quickly. I really enjoyed this story and characters. My emotions were all over the place. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing. Heath is missing something from his life and Grace just might be the person he is looking for. But they come from two different worlds. Can Heath convince Grace to give him a chance? Overall I enjoyed these two, I had LOL moments at the bantering. All of the characters added a great element to the story. It was nice seeing some from previous books. This book can be read as a stand alone but I suggest starting with book one. I look forward to reading more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

Just sweet and steamy. This is my first time reading Bree Kraemer and all I can say is that I am now a fan.

This is book 3 in the series but can be read as a standalone.

Heath is your all star pitcher who has had a great career but realizes he is at a standstill in his personal life. Well until he encounters Grace, someone he didn’t know he wanted until he realized he was lying to himself. Grace is from the part of time someone like Heath shouldn’t want someone from. Grace is smart, bossy and has goals.

This story was sweet, steamy and frustrating all in one for me. I absolutely love the character buildup and the banter between characters. You get a full story that is not rushed. You get front row seats to them being vulnerable, their relationships with their friends, family and pets. It is definitely a great read and I can’t wait to read more stories by this author.

First off, although you don’t need to read the other books in the series first, I highly recommend checking them out because the characters find themselves in this book as well!

This is Heath and Grace’s story. Heath is a famous baseball player and Grace runs an animal shelter. While they come from different worlds, they are not as different as some would believe them to be. These two spend a lot of time trying not to fall in love (and hate each other instead). Even when they make a go at things….it is a constant back and forth of them really being together. When both of them put their hearts on their line, and their true feelings out there, they just might have something amazing!

I really enjoyed these characters. There is more behind the love ’em and leave ’em facade that Heath puts on. And Grace finds her own self worth along the way. I could relate to her because my family is a lot like hers. I really enjoyed seeing the characters from the first two books make appearances. This series is very good and I can’t wait to read the next book when it comes out!!

I love how the relationship between Heath and Grace developed into a great little love story.

Heath is a famous baseball player and Grace works at an animal shelter. They denied their feelings and attraction for each other for months. Until Heath made a move and let Grace move at her own pace. This is what made me like his character. I feel like this author did a really good job at painting Heath in a positive, not your typical jerk sports player.

Grace feels as though she’s not good enough for him. Until he makes her face her truth. Once she faces that he truly just loves her the whole relationship changed.

I really love this author so couldn’t wait to get started in this book. It was as I hoped for a fantastic read. This author has such a wonderful writing style, her writing is easy to read and I always become completely absorbed in what I’m reading. I love the characters Grace and Heath. I think it’s safe to say that Heath is your typical alpha male sports star who comes across as arrogant and loves himself but I think that was just for show because actually deep down he was completely different. Grace had such a kind and caring nature but she isn’t afraid to stand up for herself when needed! These two definitely had great chemistry between them and I loved reading their story.

Grand Slam (Book 3 Ground Rules) is a Sports Romance that I absolutely loved reading. I found myself lost in the pages and couldn’t put it down until I finished. I recommend reading this series in order although it can be read as a standalone. I’m a sucker for reading series in order this way you get to know the characters better plus each book is just as good as the last. This author has a way of pulling you into their world and makes you feel like you are apart of the story. This is Heath and Grace’s story,these two come from completely different worlds but their attraction to one another is off the charts. I found myself on an emotional rollercoaster ride in some parts of their story and other times I was chuckling. I don’t want to give anything away but I will say if you’re a Sports Romance fan then this is a perfect read for you. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next and I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author.

I loved the characters in the book and how their story progressed. After not having the best start they really build their connection but it is done in a way that I real and genuine.
I have enjoyed getting to know this authors writing style over the course of these books and it is one that I find engaging and easy to read. I easily get into her stories and look forward to the story she is going to tell. I am excited to read the next book in this story and see what else this author has to offer.
