Sliding Into Home is the fourth book in the Playing for Keeps series by Lauren Fraser. It is a contemporary sports romance with a secret baby trope, angst, drama, chemistry, single mother, professional baseball player, jealousy, meddling, tension, and emotion.
This is Kia and Jeff’s story- who had an encounter six years earlier that left more than an impression on them. Now, secrets are about to come to light. What happens makes for a great read.
If you are looking for a quick and easy sports romance that has some emotion, angst, interesting characters, and drama- then this might be the book for you.
The series contains:

Looking forward to seeing what Ms. Fraser does next.

Sliding into Home

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
***No spoilers in this Review***
I read this book without reading the synopsis on it because I liked the other books in this series so much I decided I wanted to read it no matter what. I definitely suggest doing the same! I think this book maybe my favorite in this series! I felt like I never knew what Kia was going to do and I like it not being super predictable! Keep fighting for what they want

Would love to have an update on Kia, Smitty, and Max!

Can’t wait to read more books by Lauren Fraser!

Sliding into Home is the third book in the Playing for Keeps series by Lauren Fraser. It is a second chance romance sports romance with a secret. It can be read as a standalone, but I encourage you to start at the beginning as the characters cross over.
The characters feel real. We get to see sides to them that are not all polished. As we go through the journey of their lives, we feel it all the pain and emotions that go with it.
With tension, doubts, jealousy, drama, trust issues, fears, meddling parents, anger and angst it is a smorgasbord of emotions. But let’s not forget the passion and chemistry.
This is Kia and Jeff’s story. Baseball is his life, but he is about to discover that there is one thing that may just change his mind. Max steals the show though.
Sliding into Home is told in multiple POV’s which gives us a deeper look at the character. It is a quick and engaging baseball read.
I look forward to the rest of the teams’ stories.
Is love a good baseball romance this one is for you.

Sliding Into Home is Book Three in the Playing for Keeps Series. This story centers around the characters of Kia and Jeff. Six years ago, they met and hooked up for a one-night stand. Afterwards Kia discovered that she was pregnant, but she was unable to find Jeff to tell him. Jeff went onto to pursue a career in major league baseball which explains why he could not be found. Kia did not let this deter her from having a future and she moved forward with her life becoming a successful tattoo artist. She is determined, smart, hardworking, feisty, and a great mom to Max. When she runs into Jeff at her son’s baseball game she is surprised and knows that she needs to tell him that Max is his son. Jeff is now Max’s baseball coach, and he is just as surprised to see Kia after all these years. When Kia tells Jeff the news that he is Max’s father the two must navigate through how they will co-parent Max as well as work through all the external forces that seem determined to create unnecessary stress in their lives. Jeff could have easily walked away but he is determined to be a good dad to Max as well as be there for Kia. As Kia and Jeff spend more time together, they begin to develop intense, undeniable feelings for one another. A well written story with a fantastic storyline and great characters. This book will draw you in and have you rooting for Jeff, Kia, and Max to get their happily ever after story that they all deserve. A great read full of family, drama, stress, love, passion, hurt, jealousy, lies, and love.

An adorable second chance romance that will have you rooting for true love. Oh my, I found myself rooting for Max. Who wouldn’t? Max is a sweet little boy that deserved to have a mom and Dad. Kia and Smitty are two people that deserved that second chance and they will protect Max at all costs. Watching them work out their parenting issues while the spark burned between them was charming. This is one of those couples you just want to cheer for. You also give a big happy yell when some changes are made in Kia’s life. I loved the plot. The story sucks you right in from the beginning. It is very good and very intriguing. It Keeps you engaged and wanting more. I enjoyed this story so much. The romance, humor and the fact that it’s a quick read. A definite must read for romance lovers.

Sliding into home isn’t easy, sometimes it’s a fight to stay on the bag.

Single mom, and tattoo artist, Kia Kamen finally has her act together. Sure, it might be an illusion, but it feels like a pretty good one. Until a chance encounter with Jeff Smith proves it was all a lie. She’s not even close to having it all together. But what’s a girl supposed to do when her one-night stand from six years ago shows up as her son’s T-ball coach? Blurt out he’s the father, of course.

As centerfielder for the San Diego Hawks, Jeff ‘Smitty’ Smith is used to being put in pressure situations. He just never expected that to mean needing to come in clutch as a dad. Being a father he could figure out, getting Kia to take a chance on them is proving to be a little more challenging. Thank god, he’s a competitive guy, who doesn’t know the meaning of the word quit.

But how does he convince Kia it’s not a game to him? This professional athlete is ready to play for keeps.
