Audiobook Review: The Double Play by Annah Conwell

The Double PlayThe Double Play by Annah Conwell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hazel has the chance to work for another sports figure, but does she want to work for Emmett, a single dad, when all she's been used to is two parent families? Her former employer highly recommended Emmett, so she decided to give him a chance. But when she met June, his beautiful daughter, she was smitten and knew she had to have the job.

Little did she know that she'd fall head over heels for this grumpy baseball player. But fall she did, and hard. And not only for him, but for June as well.

Annah Conwell has provided us with an exceptional grumpy/sunshine, nanny, sports romance, rom-com. How she fit so much in such a little space is beyond me.

I loved the dynamic between Emmett and Hazel, and Hazel and June. And I want to go back and live in this world with them as my besties forever.

Tim Paige and Charlotte North did a wonderful job narrating this book and I would certainly give any book they were reading a chance.

I'd like to thank the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book.

This series was fantastic and I tore through the first two books like there was no tomorrow. But this book really didn't catch my interest until about 80% of the way through the book. Once the conflict started the action made the read worthwhile.

After the first book, you know that Rose, Eugene, Vincent, and Eva ended up on another planet. This book highlights the time there and what happens afterward. What really irked me about this book was the fact that the story bounced back and forth from the time on the planet to the time afterward. I would have preferred that it stay in one timeframe and give us all of the story chunks at a time. I would have understood if they were talking about the time in the book as a flashback, but they weren't.

Storyline plot: 3 stars
Action scenes: 4 stars

Though this gives it a 3.5 star rating and you should round up I just can't due to the bouncing around and the fact that it didn't get moving sooner.

I hope there are more books from this author as I would highly enjoy trying his work again.
