"3.5⭐ I've enjoyed many sports romances (mostly hockey) in the past, but this was my first baseball romance. It was fun and pretty fast paced, so I don't regret reading it, but it's nothing to brag about. The plot was mid, the characters fell a bit flat, and part of the spice felt unnecessary and repetitive. Insta-love has never really been my thing and the miscommunication trope and I have never vibed, so in retrospect, it's unsurprising that this book just wasn't my jam. Josh, though he clearly had some mild anger issues, was a total cinnamon roll, so that was one plus! I love a good cinnamon roll MMC! I liked both Josh and Gretchen, and thought they were a cute couple, but I never felt any particular attachment to either of them. This book is dual POV, which I enjoyed, but it switched back and forth at the most random times, which was a bit jarring for the first few chapters. The ending was cute, if a bit rushed. Not a waste of time IMO, but definitely not worth a reread. "
