I'd really what to know what fueled the kidnapping and whether Justin made it back home safely. This is a great read and an interesting one.

It sounds like the book contains too much drama for a thriller, still I might pick it up for the action packed plot. That was quite an elaborate review thanks.

I was expecting that there would be a lot of content regarding baseball game but I am glad it's not true. This story has more characters and a very interesting plot.
Thank you for the review

Thanks for a great review. I'm really glad you enjoyed it and got so much out of it. I did like the author's style of writing, but the parts about the kidnappings I don't believe I would care about. Also, I don't know how much sexual content there is, but I'm going to pass on it. I'm sure many others will enjoy it.

Sorry that although majority of the characters are baseball players, the game does not take center role in the storyline. Thanks for your review.

This book is definitely an enjoyable read. I like that it's action-packed and fast-paced book with a smoothly flowing plot. However, I'm not a fan of this genre. Otherwise, congrats on the BOTD!

At first glance, I thought it would be about a sweet romance, but after reading the official review, I think it would be more of a thrilling mystery and deceits.

A well-written, action-packed, fast-paced story full of drama, baseball, kidnapping, deceit, mystery and a sprinkling of political undertones. The descriptions draw the reader in, engaging one in the story to the last page. I am hooked. Thank you for a wonderful and convincing review.

The cover of this book caught my eye. I’m not much into sports but I think the mystery to this read has me wondering. The only negative thing about this is the profanity and sexual content mentioned. Congratulations on the BOTD

This is definitely my kind of genre. Seems like it full of suspense. I'm however glad to hear that it's not baseball oriantated as sometimes when sports are too in detail it loses the plot eventually. Thanks for a great and detailed review. Congrats on BOTD.

The qualities that the male protagonist possesses make him very attractive, and this is a good feature for the novel because it will also attract many readers. Congratulations to the author for BOTD!
