Pleiade (Addy) Enders has her place among the glittering stars of Chicago… in name only. Despite the fact that she has always dreamt of marrying a baseball player, it seems she’s not really cut out for it. She’d much rather be home watching Shark Week than out hobnobbing with the local celebrities alongside her quasi-famous husband Matt.
No one ever told her what her Baseball Wife dream would really entail while Matt worked his way out of the minors: Addy was too busy coupon clipping and keeping track of Matt’s ERA to carry out her Master’s research on the mating habits of sandbar sharks. Now that he’s in the Major Leagues, Addy longs to have a career of her own. But, after a chance meeting with her college sweetheart Ryan, Addy realizes that she must choose between the vows she made when she married Matt and the promises she made to herself.
This is an alternate-cover edition for B00UW3RTHM.
Like her character Addy in Thrown for a Curve, Kit has a practically useless degree in marine biology. A teacher by profession and at heart, she loves to impart little-known facts and dares you to walk away from one of her "light-hearted" chick-lit books without learning at least one new thing. Kit's female leads are all intelligent, strong, and stand fine on their own... but then again, a Prince Charming waiting in the background is always appreciated. As long as he puts the toilet seat down.
My sister-in-law wrote this book so I am biased to say the least.
This is worth checking out if you enjoy a good twisty love story & have an interest in the subculture of baseball wives. The main character is slightly flawed in an endearing way that makes you want to root for her along her journey to self-discovery in those odd post-college years.
