Squeeze Play

Washington DC Soaring Eagles Series, Book 1

By: Aven Ellis

Narrated by: Andrea Emmes

Full of enthusiasm, recent graduate Hayley Carter is thrilled to be working for a non-profit organization in Washington, DC. Having spent a lot of her life in the background due to family circumstances, Hayley is eager to step up and be heard - and bring much needed change to her new organization.

With romance on the shelf, it's time to focus on herself and new career. Armed with a workbook to help her improve on a personal and professional level, Hayley is ready to become a better version of who she already is. But will a baseball player for the Washington Soaring Eagles challenge her thoughts on not only dating, but the person she thinks she needs to be?

Brody Jensen is the new catcher for the professional team in DC. Baseball is everything to Brody and has been his salvation while growing up. Brody wants to make the most of his full-time shot behind the plate. Which means no serious relationships.

However, when a chance encounter leads him to Hayley, Brody finds himself wanting to know all about the beautiful blonde who has engaged him from the moment he spotted her. Together, they find themselves questioning the ideals they had set for not only relationships, but themselves, too.

When the cherry blossoms bloom in the nation's capital, Cupid puts a squeeze play on Hayley and Brody. Will they be brave enough to love themselves and each other? Will love be called out? Or will their relationship be safe at home?

Wonderful story!

I enjoyed this story so much! Her writing is so fresh and engaging! Highly recommend this book. I stayed up late reading not able to put it down.

Lovely

A true young-love, and coming-of-age story. Both of them learning, and growing together. It’s what I always wished I had had. I’d like to think this kind of love exists. At least I can visit it whenever I want in this audiobook. I adore a good baseball romance. This is definitely a new favorite. 🤍⚾️🤍

It was okay.

It was really good and then it got stale. My favorite part is the neighbors who are like grandparents to all of the characters.

Absolutely adorable

I went into this expecting a cute baseball romance. It fulfilled my expectations! It was funny, sweet, and I absolutely related to Hayley probably more than I really wished to have related-both in confidence and in what I call a lack of a mouth filter. Can’t wait to read the rest!

Story line

The story line was great. The bring about awareness of dislectia and learning habits are great.
