Synopsis
USA TODAY BESTSELLING authors, Terri E. Laine and A.M. Hargrove bring a new full-length standalone, Contemporary Romance novel.
Our relationship starts off like a bad joke.
A gorgeous guy walks into a bar and says to me, “Do you want to F#ck?” and damn if I don’t say yes.
And that should have been it—the punch line.
We never should’ve seen each other again.
Only we do.
Turns out sex on a stick, Ryder Wilde, is more than an orgasm-giver. He’s a player. Not just any either. A Major League Baseball pitcher. And damn, I want to be his catcher.
Except he doesn’t want to play any games or follow my rules:

Except he doesn’t want to play any games or follow my rules:
No relationships.
No falling in love.
Because he’s used to winning … and wants to claim me as his prize.
His mission is to own me, body and soul, no matter how much I push him away.
Powerless to stop him, I can only hope my heart isn’t another casualty of his fastball.

My Review
*ARC received in return for an honest review
Wow!! Fastball started off with a bang, literally, and boy did it take me for a ride. This has to be my favourite of the series so far, I freakin' loved it!!
Fastball is a real page-turner, the plot was fast paced and kept me hooked from the start. It had me laughing out loud so many times, fuming and shouting at Ryder's agent (no spoilers) and fanning myself from the oh-so-hot, steamy scenes! There was a rather touching scene that gave me goosebumps and left me with tears in my eyes.
I loved Gina, she was such a strong woman, she'd had to be growing up practically on her own but yet she was soft and fragile on the inside when you looked closer. She certainly met her match with Ryder. Maaan, they made the Fourth of July look tame with their fireworks between the sheets, in the bathroom. Anywhere!
Ryder, what can I say about that hot, sexy pitcher other than...he is so mine with his dirty mouth and even dirtier moves, just sayin'.
Another awesome success from the pens of the dynamic writing duo Hargrove & Laine, this series just gets better & better. Bring on book three..quick!!
Go 1-click this baby now.
My rating...
One day, on her way home from work as a sales manager, USA Today bestselling author, A. M. Hargrove, realized her life was on fast forward and if she didn't do something soon, it would be too late to write that work of fiction she had been dreaming of her whole life. So she made a quick decision to quit her job and reinvented herself as a Naughty and Nice Romance Author.
Annie fancies herself all of the following: Reader, Writer, Dark Chocolate Lover, Ice Cream Worshipper, Coffee Drinker (swears the coffee, chocolate, and ice cream should be added as part of the USDA food groups). Lover of Grey Goose (and an extra dirty martini), #WalterThePuppy Lover, and if you're ever around her for more than five minutes, you'll find out she's a non-stop talker.
Terri E. Laine, USA Today bestselling author, left a lucrative career as a CPA to pursue her love for writing. Outside of her roles as a wife and mother of three, she’s always been a dreamer and as such became an avid reader at a young age.
In her early years, she and her best friend would tell each other stories over the phone when they were bored. They called them their "soap operas" and generally revolved around whatever boy they liked at the time.
Many years later, she got a crazy idea to write a novel and set out to try to publish it. With over a dozen titles published under various pen names, the rest is history. Her journey has been a blessing, and a dream realized. She looks forward to many more memories to come.
