The Barnes & Noble ReviewJust what will it take to turn some serious jocks from romantic free agents into contract players? This sexy contemporary anthology has the answers, with original stories by romance authors Julia London, Deirdre Martin, Annette Blair, and Geri Buckley. In London's "Lucky Charm," shock jock Kelly O'Shay has been criticizing the play of Mets player Parker Price, until she comes up against the man himself. Hockey comes in for its moment in Martin's "Same Rink, Next Year," as a heavy Chicago blizzard turns a once-a-year tryst for hotel concierge Tierney O'Connor and goalie David Hewson into an affair to remember. A special train bound for spring training throws Quinn Murdock and baseball megastar Juan Santiago together again. Will a three-day train trip rekindle old sparks? Last, in Buckley's "You Can't Catch This," Lindy Hamilton commits a faux pas when she is forced to use the men's room in a crowded football stadium, but it turns out to be a touchdown for workaholic Josh Weldon.
