ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 29, 2022
She wants forever. He plays it day by day. They’re both wishing for the best in USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke’s charming and sexy hopefully-ever-after romance.
Single mom Palmer Clark will not be sidelined by the new man in town. Sure, the honey-tongued baseball legend is gorgeous, loves puppies, and has charmed his way into the community’s heart, but Palmer craves stability. Nothing about Cole says forever. So why is he so hard to resist?
Cole is swinging through town to visit his parents when he meets the kind of down-to-earth distraction he’s been looking for since retiring from the majors. True, his long-term relationship score is zero. But even though raising his average with Palmer seems impossible, it’s worth a shot.
As promising as the summer nights are, fate turns small-town dreams upside down, and some lessons are learned the hard way. But having faith in love and choosing hope over fear might get Palmer and Cole to the sweet spot they’re looking for.
•••••••
REVIEW: The Sweet Spot is a standalone, small town, single mom romance. This author is known for her great story lines and memorable character, but this one fell a little flat for me.
The story line is good, Palmer and her son Ethan are close, their relationship really shows in the novel. However the chemistry between Cole and Palmer just wasn’t there for me. There were parts of the story that were better than others, but in many parts it felt forced and rushed. I wanted so much to like this more than I did, it has some of my most favorite genres, and as a long time fan of the author I was surprised.
The secondary characters were awesome, I loved seeing them and their interaction with Cole, Palmer and Ethan, it added such warmth to the story. The ending however felt rushed, and was unnecessarily obvious. The Sweet Spot is a faced paced read, not the best by this author, but also a pleasant read.
