Release Blitz + Review: "Playboy Pitcher" by Cora Kenborn

I'm excited to participate in today's release blitz celebrating "Playboy Pitcher" by Cora Kenborn, a standalone Cocky Hero Club novel inspired by "Park Avenue Player."
 
"Playboy Pitcher" featured incredibly likeable, well-developed characters and a fast-paced plot with multiple twists and turns. I was immediately hooked by the flirty, witty banter and steamy chemistry between main characters Willow and Benson and stayed up way past my bedtime to finish the book because I couldn't wait to find out how their story ended. Their enemies-to-lovers romance was more of an emotional roller coaster than I was expecting, but I absolutely loved it.
 
In addition to Willow and Benson, I really enjoyed getting to know several of the book's secondary characters. My favorite was delightfully snarky teenager Emma; I'd love to read a future story about her! I also liked Hoyt, manager of the Miami Storm, who was a kind of father figure for Willow at times. He gave her some much needed advice (and a kick in the pants) when she really needed it. 
 
I highly recommend "Playboy Pitcher" for all contemporary/sports romance readers and will definitely be checking out more books by this author.

About "Playboy Pitcher"

The first time I met Benson LaCroix, he sat in a bar wearing “cocky player” like a cheap cologne.
The second time, he stood in a locker room in nothing but a jockstrap and a scowl.
Apparently, the Miami Storm’s star pitcher isn’t too thrilled his new boss is the woman who turned him down.

That makes two of us.

I never asked to inherit my father’s baseball team. It’s the one thing I despised more than him.
I’m just here to sell, sign on the dotted line, and get out.

Until I’m hit with Dad’s final parting gift—a buyer’s clause.

Enter Satan—otherwise known as my ex.
I should swallow my pride and just accept his offer. Instead, I tell him where to shove it.
It can’t be that hard to turn the major league’s biggest joke into a winning team.

Right?

With only four weeks to do the impossible, I’ll need more than a miracle.
I’ll need a secret weapon. Someone ruthless enough to marry me for my money.
Like a playboy pitcher with a wicked curveball.

Two quickie vows and one hostile truce later, and it’s game on.

Ben and I can do this.
I just have to keep my eye on his balls.
I mean the ball. The prize.

Oh hell. We’re in trouble.

Playboy Pitcher is an enemies to lovers/sports romance inspired by Park Avenue Player.
