Slider really has very little to do with baseball so if you are looking for a sports romance, this isn't it. The family of 4 brothers enjoys baseball as hobby and they all play as a family but thats it. These are not professional athletes.
Turner was difficult to like. He was a selfish manwhore for the start of the book. It was a well known fact around the hospital where he worked. Not really an attractive quality. Annabelle is afraid of relationships because her parents died. I found it difficult to connect with either of these characters really. I thought Annabelle was really overreacting by avoiding all relationships. I also didn't like that Turner was a bit cold and distant.
So, what did I like? I liked the ways Turner tried to push Annabelle's boundaries. I liked the connection between Annabelle and the baby. It was really good symbolism for her own feelings. Overall this is a good contemporary romance. It wasn't anything fresh or new, but its well written and a pretty quick read.
