Publisher Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey is back with an all-new enemies-to-lovers, fake-dating sports romance about a playboy hockey rookie and the disciplined softball pitcher completely immune to his charms.
Boston Bearcats rookie Robbie Corrigan is living the dream. He’s made it to the NHL, his best friend/teammate and fellow “orgasm donor” is his roomie—and the women of Boston love them both. Life is sweet. That is, until he meets Skylar Paige, division 1 softball pitcher, girl least likely to take anyone’s bull…and the one member of the opposite sex immune to his charms. Robbie might be dazzled by the badass pitcher, but Skylar pegs him as a filthy player and wants nothing to do with him.
When he discovers she’s carrying a serious torch for her brother’s best friend, Robbie knows he should just go back to clubbing and whipped cream bikini parties, but he can’t seem to leave Skylar to flounder on her romantic quest to land another man. Nor can he miss out on the opportunity to spend time with her and hopefully redeem himself. Before Robbie knows it, he’s agreed to be Skylar’s fake boyfriend/love coach at an upcoming family wilderness competition where her crush will be in attendance. What could go wrong?
Through a series of contests that require them to trust each other, Robbie and Skylar grow closer and closer until their fake relationship starts to feel like the realest thing they’ve ever known and the sizzling lessons in sensuality burn out of control.
But it’s all just pretend…right?
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Trickery takes a turn toward true love in Tessa Bailey’s beguiling sports romance. Star college softball pitcher Skylar Page commands the mound but is hopeless when it comes to dating. Enter Robbie Corrigan, a professional hockey player whose other sport is hooking up. Perhaps by pretending to date her, Robbie can help Skylar up her game enough to get the attention of her longtime crush. Bailey has fun with the setup as the couple tries to sell the charade to Skylar’s friends and family—at least until the ruse turns real. Robbie, though, is a prodigious lothario who’s bedded half of New England. His entirely earned reputation creates a barrier that is justifiably hard for the less experienced Skylar to move past. Trust, given and earned, is their only path to a happy ending. By keeping the romantic curveballs coming, Pitcher Perfect knocks it out of the park.
