All Wound Up
Play by Play series – Book #10
by Jaci Burton
Release Date: August 4, 2015

All Wound UpAmazon / Barnes & Noble / Kobo / BAM / The Book Depository

Description:

Aubry Ross is way too busy for a love life. But baseball player Tucker Cassidy keeps ending up in her emergency room, and he’s kind of irresistible. Tucker has no intention of playing games with Aubry—he’s dead serious about romancing the daughter of the team owner, even if it does put his job in jeopardy. 

 

Review:

For any fan of Jaci Burton and her Play by Play series this is a must read. I absolutely loved Tucker and Aubry. They were perfect for each other and came off as genuine characters. It didn’t take long for me to be pulled into their story and want them to have their HEA. Both Tucker and Aubrey are fun, passionate, dedicated and love their jobs. Aubry is in med school and very busy being a doctor, while Tucker is a pro baseball player and very busy perfecting his craft to be the best he can on the mound. However, both feel there is something about the other worth getting to know, and carve out time from their busy schedules to explore it. Their scenes together are both fun and flirty, but when they get down to business….fire hazard warning…..you’d best have a glass of ice water nearby. Holy Hanna, does Jaci know how to write a sex scene. I swear the pages were smoking as I read those scenes. Aubry and Tucker are both extremely passionate people when it comes to sex, and aren’t afraid to tell the other how they like it. I’m thinking Jaci must have set a few pencils on fire writing those scenes, LOL!!

There wasn’t a single thing I didn’t like about either the characters or the story itself. For anyone who’s a sports fan, this series is perfect for you, and I being a fellow sports fan loves this series. When Jaci’s writing a game scene it’s like we’re actually there watching the game, whether it be baseball, football, hockey, etc. I’m always on the edge of my seat, cheering the pro and their team on, wanting the victory for them. It’s very easy to get caught up in the action of the game the way Jaci describes all the nuances and events going on. This is just another reason I love this series and Jaci’s writing. She has a knack for incorporating the sporting scenes with the romance. It just adds another layer of excitement to the story. Plus, she always has a solid core of secondary characters to help further our main couple’s story. Tucker’s family is hilarious, I loved every scene with him and his brothers. The sibling rivalry is present with all their teasing and bantering to one another, but deep down you can feel the love and respect that they have for one another. Plus, the way they seamlessly accept Aubry into their brother’s life and their family is lovely to watch.

In my opinion I’d say Jaci has another hit on her hands with All Wound Up. It’s fun, flirty, passionate and sexy all wound together to create an exciting and fast read. My only let down was when I read the last page, turned it and their wasn’t more to read about Aubry and Tucker. However, I was happy to see that the first chapter for the next in the series was there and it’s about Tucker’s twin Barrett. After meeting Barrett in this one, I can’t wait to read his story and watch him fall head over heals in love and get teased by Tucker. All Wound Up is a fantastic edition to this series and whether you are a sports fan or not you won’t be disappointed. However, if you are a sports fan then the sport scenes are an added bonus for you. The characters were well developed, genuine, real and you felt every moment of their passion for life and one another throughout the whole story.

Until next time, happy reading!!
