I've been reading the Belltown Six Pack novels and Charming the Shortstop is my favorite so far. I really love Axel and, though he is a pro baseball player, is also dealing with some family situations that give him an extra dimension. When he meets Brighton, who is still getting over her ex-fiance, the sparks fly. But can they find a way to trust their feelings for each other?
This book had so much swoon to it, I could hardly put it down. I liked the realistic obstacles Brighton and Axel were facing and the story also had some great secondary characters like Gabe and Silvia. There are appearances by other Belltown Six Pack members that provide a nice continuity. Ms. Moore's writing style is balanced and draws the reader in. The setting was well done and even those readers who don't really like baseball will love this story. But the best part was definitely the chemistry between the characters. It was off the charts. So good! I can't wait to start the next one.

Here's the back copy:
He’s not looking. She’s been burned. But sparks fly, and they decide to go on a date. Just this once.
When professional baseball player Axel Diaz travels back to Belltown University for a friend’s wedding, he’s not planning on bringing a date. Until he meets Brighton West, the flight attendant who he can’t get off his mind. Although dubbed “Cold Axe” by some of his female fans, Axel asks Brighton to be his date to the wedding, all the while wondering why of all times and places he is breaking his no-dating streak. But the more he gets to know Brighton, the more he realizes she may be the one woman who can melt his cold heart.
