Title- Buddy Carruthers, Wide Receiver
Series- First & Ten #2
By- Jean C. Joachim
Genre- Sports Romance
Blurb-
Known for his record-breaking stats
and womanizing ways, wide receiver, Buddy Carruthers, would give it all up for
one chance to win the only woman he ever wanted, Emmy Meacham. Hard-won games,
and traveling half the season kept Buddy from pursuing his secret passion. Even
if he managed to corner her for a moment, would she still care?
Now a rock star known as Emerald,
Emmy lived her life on the road with no time for love. In her dreams, she
longed to turn back the clock and spend another night with Buddy. But lies and
deceit had kept them apart for five years. Would a chance meeting wash away
those years or cause old wounds to resurface? Could two lives traveling in
opposite directions make room for love or would they continue to spin, out of
sync, and always alone?

Buddy
still wants Emmy, but thinks that she dumped him. Emmy still wants Buddy, but
thinks he dumped her. Emerald the singing sensation, (Buddy’s Emmy) has Stash,
her manager. He handles every aspect of her life, it is just easier that way,
or is it. Seems as though maybe Stash is as responsible for her misfortunes as
her stalker again makes her fear for her life and all those in it.
I wasn’t as thrilled with this book, it seemed
to be a little sophomoric, with Buddy and Emmy coming off more like high school
students than adults at times. But was a well written, well thought out book, I
can find no fault with the writing. I will still recommend it and want to read
the next in the series as it does pull at my imagination. Again, I thank Jean
C. Joachim for allowing me to read and review for her. Four stars for Buddy
Carruthers.
