Fans of the Richmond Rogues have waited a long time for this story. The writing as usual is flowing and descriptive from this author. I did enjoy this addition to the series, with a few minor reservations, I felt the first half if the book lacked action and direction, the story seemed more preoccupied with too much detail for me about too many mundane things that the reader didn't need to know. We are treated to a narrative of a whole basball game, yes I know this is a sports romance but more emphasis was needed on the romance IMO. We were made privy to every financial dealing that Law had, and when we were treated to the history of his dinning room table that was a step too far for me. The second half of the book made up for the lack of action in the first, as usual there was a secondary romance between another Richmond Rogue Brody and the small town girl he left behind seven years before. The relationship between the H/h was quite tentative and was slowly built. I felt that there could have been a little more interaction between them.
Characters from the previous books made an appearance it was nice to catch up with all of them and how their lives had moved on.
All in all a good read, not my favourite of the series. But a must read nonetheless.
