Description

He's the hottest player in Major League Baseball, the most notorious playboy in all of Manhattan . . .And my fake fiancé for the next three months . . .I was drunk-dialing my ex the night I met him. Six-three, sexy as sin, and so incredibly rude I could smack the smirk right off his face. Long story short, we got off to a bad start. But when the tabloids interpret our sparring as Drew Maddox "groveling" with a "mystery brunette," his agent presents us both a proposal: Shacking up as a couple this summer. It's an alleged "win-win." I need to prove to my ex that I'm fine. Drew needs to prove to his team that he's stable.

baseball, but you could not call me a diehard fan by any stretch. In life I have never been drawn to gym rat jocks - unless you count one long ago D1 swimmer who was also a lit major and listened to Captain Beefheart and Wire.

One note, I listened to this, and while I really liked the male narrator, John Masterson, I was less impressed with the female narrator, Cassandra Myles. In parts she was weirdly wooden in her delivery, but that was far from the main problem. Myles sounds like she is 12 and that is off-putting when people are writing about having delightfully rough sex. Oddly, the only time her voice did not bug me was when she read the male parts since she dropped her voice a couple of octaves to do so. Sorry Cassandra!
