Wonderful story, Hot Baseball player

I absolutely love all of Jill's books, she is a wonderful writer, so descriptive you can picture everything that's happening. This book is no different! Holly and Pace have undeniable sexual chemistry and I loved reading how they fall in love. The secondary characters are just as fun to read about and I can't wait until the next book in this series. Sports players are always hot and Pace definitely is. Thanks Jill for another great book.

GREAT READ

This book is really fun. I read it in three days and enjoyed every word. The characters are very likeable and the dialogue, as always with Jill Shalvis, was the best.

Great Beach Read!

Holly Hutchins is a freelance writer who was told to do some articles on Baseball and her first interview is with Pitcher Pace Martin. Pace having some shoulder problems and doesn't want anyone - and especially a reporter. Holly and Pace have some great chemistry and fight from the first. A great sports romance novel, Enjoy! Looking forward to her next sport romance Slow Heat due out February 2010. If you enjoy this genre or are looking for a great summer read I would also suggest; See Jane Score, One Reckless Summer: A Destiny Novel, True Love and Other Disasters and Sliding Home.

LOVED THIS BOOK

This is my first Jill Shalvis book-but won't be my last! I loved Pace & Holly's story and can't wait for the series to continue. What's not to love about a hot baseball player falling hard for a girl! It's been a while since I've read a REALLY good book-but this was it-had everything I look for in a romance!

A grand slam of a book

Double Play by Jill Shalvis is a perfect summertime read of steamy romance and the love of Americas favorite pastime. Pace Martin has a charmed life as the ace pitcher for the Santa Barbara Pacific Heat. Baseball has been his whole life but now he may have a season ending injury. To make matters even worse the PR dept. saddles him with a nosy reporter. Pace thinks he can keep Holly Hutchins under control but she is slowly getting under his skin. Holly Hutchins has a weekly blog that she does stories of national interest. She gets talked into doing one on the baseball team in town. Holly is so out of her comfort zone on this subject but she is willing to learn. Getting ace pitcher Pace Martin to set down for an interview is becoming a challenge. Holly's initial conception of Pace changes with every time she is with him. Pace and Holly relationship starts with saucy flirting and grows to an all out scorching passion. But someone is leaking secrets to the press and this puts a strain on all involved. Can Holly convince Pace and his teammates that she is not the person that is doing this? Double Play is the absolute best book to celebrate the boys of summer. Jill Shalvis blends the action on the field with the action off the field seamlessly. She makes you feel like you are right there with the players on the field. The chemistry between Holly and Pace is tantalizing and leaps off every page. Jill Shalvis delivers another winner that every romance reader must have.
