Nightclub manager Leslie Cutter has never been one to back down from a bet. So when Peter Kowalskin, pitcher for the Denver Rush baseball team, bets her that she can’t keep her hands off of him, she’s not about to let the arrogant, sexy playboy win. Especially when the prize could put her business on the map. She’s got this in the bag, just so long as she can stay out of his arms…and his bed.
Peter struck out once before with Leslie, but this bet is sure to be the second chance he’s been waiting for. Determined to stoke the passion he knows is there, he’ll do anything to win - even if it means playing a little dirty.
But as things heat up, this combustible pair will have to decide just how much they’re willing to wager on one another…and on a future that just might last forever.

This was a HIGHLY anticipated read for me, I have been DYING to find out what all the chemistry surrounding Leslie and Peter was  about starting in STEALING HOME and continuing into PLAYING THE FIELD. 
Jennifer Season's did a fabulous job at weaving Leslie and Peters attraction throughout the series, and I was so excited to get my hands on THROWING HEAT, and BOY WAS IT SMOKIN HOT!  Peter and Leslie lit up the pages with Flirty Banter, Intimate Touches, and some Very Very Frustrating Sexual Tension...but boy was EVERY MOMENT all the more fun. 
On the flip side, the emotions that each of these characters felt for each other, or hid from each other was heart-warming, heart-breaking and so powerful, you couldn't help but feel the emotion yourself.  I didn't know what to expect from Playboy Peter Kowalskin, but he was oh so much more than I had originally given him credit for, and he sure does right by Leslie, and for once, I think the heroine deserves the guy!!
Great Series, Fabulous New Author, and a MUST-READ of 2013!!

Gibson Chinook fans are gonna LOVE the Bad Boys of the Denver Rush!

Love may be just a game, but the baseball players in Jennifer Seasons' sexy diamonds and dugouts series— they're playing for keeps!

Mark Cutter has it all: a lucrative baseball career, fast cars, and faster women—and all thanks to his priceless good luck charm. At least, that's what he thinks before Lorelei Littleton shows up. Next thing he knows, he's waking up alone, the sexy brunette has vanished, and his good luck charm is gone. More than a little curious about the wicked-hot cat burglar and determined to get his property back, Mark's going to track down the thief and make her pay—big time.

Maybe Lorelei feels a tiny bit guilty for stealing Mark's good luck charm, but when it's worth $100,000 and the money could save her niece's life? She's not losing sleep over it . . . but him? Lorelei can't get the ballplayer with the bad attitude out of her head. And now he's come after her with more than just revenge in his eyes. Lorelei has a choice: turn over the charm and lose the money, or keep it and risk losing everything . . . including her heart.


I am SO glad I picked up STEALING HOME by Jennifer Seasons the other afternoon.  I was in the mood for a quick, light-hearted romance and I got that and SO MUCH MORE!!  As most of you know, I am a HUGE Rachel Gibson fan, and when I first started STEALING HOME, I got that same feeling that I get when reading RG, that happy anticipation of what's to come, knowing that I am going to love every minute.  I got that feeling, and I have to say, I enjoyed STEALING HOME so much! 

Lorelei, our heroine, was hysterical! She reminded me a lot of Annabelle from SEP's MATCH ME IF YOU CAN.  She had a HUGE heart and did what needed to be done to survive, even if she had to use "Fonda" and the girls to get it done!

Mark "The Wall"...well...I think his name just says it all!  He was tough, but so charming and had that Southern Gentleman Smile that would come out once in a while and make all your lady parts do a little dance.  He was a guy who had been through a lot and was looking for something "real"...ya gotta respect that.  He just has to jump through a whole lotta hoops to finally get his woman!

The secondary characters are adorable!  Mark's sister Leslie was a little fire cracker, and I hope she gets her own book!  The men of the Denver Rush were such a fraternity with their ribbing and pranks, I LOVED them all!!  These bad boys really did have hearts of gold!!

I am so looking forward to PLAYING THE FIELD, book two, releasing in July!
