Play for Me by Libby HubscherContemporary RomanceJune 20, 2023- BerkleyARC Review by Angela I've come to really enjoy this author's books. While the first two were more women's fiction and lighter on the actual romance, this book really focuses on the relationship between Sophie and Jonas. When Play for Me opens Sophie has just been let go from her job as head athletic trainer for the Boston Red Sox after pulling a pitcher from game 7 of the World Series.

Angela: Half of these books I've already read because it's been a hard couple of weeks and I needed comfort. It's also my birthday month and I expect my one-clicking to be out of control. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! An Unexpected Peril (Veronica Speedwell #6) by Deanna Raybourn 3/2 Historical Mystery- Yep, already read it. This was my first read of this year because I love Veronica and Stoker and I couldn't help myself. This was another great installment in one of my favorite series. Review to Continue Reading
