Stealing Home

by Becky Wallace

Ryan Russell has life perfectly planned. If she keeps up her hard work, one day she'll take over the family business: owning the Buckley Beavers, a minor league baseball team, and become one of the only female General Managers in the sport.

But when the newest member of the Beavers, Sawyer Campbell, arrives, Ryan's plans are thrown a curveball. Fraternizing with players if off limits, and Sawyer is far more charming than the jocks she usually manages. With the Beavers in financial trouble, and Ryan's mom threatening to sell her shares, Ryan must drum-up quick revenue to save her team. Partnering with Sawyer and using his star-power is her best chance, but the more time she spends with him, the more impossible it becomes to play by the rules-and Ryan can't afford a strikeout on the path to her dreams.

This was a quick, and fun read. This is my first Becky Wallace book, and it certainly won’t be my last. Her writing style is both captivating and unique and really pulled me in, as a reader.

Wallace’s characters, Ryan and Sawyer were so awesome together. The sweet chemistry that you instantly feel between their quirky characters is fantastic. It’s just enough to spark the romance between them, while not being crazy and wild. Definitely what I like to see in a young adult read.

Seeing Ryan and Sawyer work together to help Ryan’s dreams come true was another refreshing point to the story. I felt like I was right there with them, cheering from the side lines we call life.

If you like a young adult read that has just the right combination of fast paced reading, gripping characters, and sparks of romance, then this is definitely a 4 star book you don’t want to miss. This baseball read has me ready for summer to come and another amazing book from this talented author. Great job on hitting a home run with this fan, Ms. Wallace!
