Behind the count is a best friend's sibling college baseball romance in the Cessna U Wildcats series. I love a good best friend's sibling story and this one did not disappoint. I was especially interested in this story as it focused on the catcher which is the position I played in baseball. Kimberly Readnour did a great job with the tension and secrecy part you see with this trope. Noah and Shannon's attraction was hot and steamy once they no longer hid it from each other. I felt for both Noah and Shannon with regards to their medical issues and their fears regarding them. This is becoming my favourite trope and this is a must-read series for those who love baseball romances. Next up is Full Count and I can not wait to see what happens with Garret and Lexie and find out why Garret is so secretive.
