Blurb
Screw him and his perfect stats.
Sinful smirk.
Delicious body.
Lincoln Landry probably even has game-winning stamina.
I’d like to screw her and her perfect ass.
Dangerous curves.
Sweet smile.
Danielle Ashley probably even has a game-changing personality.
There’s no denying the chemistry between them. It’s so fiery, it’s undeniable. They partake in it. Enjoy it.
They really enjoy it.
Attraction is not a problem. Nor is their banter, relationship status, or habits. That’s all fine. Perfect, actually.
The problem is as tangled up as their sheets.
A STANDALONE romantic comedy from USA Today Bestselling author Adriana Locke.
Oh my Lincoln!! Being at the wrong place at the right time was for the win for meeting Dani. And as for baseball terms, Dani was his home run. I really enjoyed reading Swing and can’t wait to meet the rest of the Landry family.
Dani was drawn to Lincoln but was very cautious of him being an athlete. And she had every right to be. My heart felt for her with growing up the way she did. When she was with Lincoln’s family, Dani wanted the family that she always wanted. Lincoln was going through his own issues. Worrying if he would be able to continue his baseball career with an injury. But he realizes what is most important in his life.
Swing is a sexy, hot and heartwarming read!! Loved it

*ARC Review*
Lincoln Landry is famous, sexy as sin and lives and breathes baseball, but after suffering a career threatening injury he finds himself looking for ways to occupy his time when not in therapy. When at the hospital for a therapy session, he meets Danielle Ashley and finds himself intrigued by the woman who didn’t fall at his feet.Danielle can’t deny Lincoln’s good looks and charm, but she despises baseball and all it represents. She also has family issues and is not keen to get involved with a player during the off-season, but Lincoln is determined to find out how much of an attraction really exists between them.This is a nice story, romantic and funny at times and can be read as a standalone without any problems. I really enjoyed the banter between these characters, the sexy baseball analogies, the Landry family dynamics and other secondary characters.
Unfortunately, I felt the book was a little flat for my taste. 3.25 Book Corner Stars

Excerpt
The bell chimes as the front door closes behind me. I’m to my car in record speed. I need space. I need air. I need to think. When my phone buzzes right before I pull out of the parking lot, I know it’s Pepper and she’s not going to quit until I give her something to occupy her mind.
“Fine!” I nearly shout into the phone. “His cock is about ten inches, if I’m guessing, and he fucked me in about every position I could explain. My favorite, though, was the corkscrew. Not sure what that is? Google it.”
My finger goes to swipe off the call when I see the name on the screen and drop the phone. “Shit!” I cry, digging through the items on my passenger’s side floorboard until I find the glowing device.
My heart is pounding as I try to decide whether to end the call or talk to Lincoln. Mortified, I bring it to my ear and squeeze my eyes shut. He’s silent.
Maybe he didn’t hear. Please, God, don’t let him have heard that.
“Hello?” I eke out.
“I’d say ten inches is fair and I’ve made a note about the corkscrew. Glad I called,” he chuckles.
