Sexy men + sweet romance = The perfect read!

CAUGHT RUNNING is the story about the high school jock and the
unpopular science nerd reunited ten years later as teachers at their
alma mater. The principal of the school "volunteers" Brandon (the nerd) to help Jake (the jock) coach baseball for a season. Since they were from two different crowds in high school and never really knew each other then, they basically have to start from scratch when they come together to coach the varsity baseball team.
The first half of the story is about the men getting to know each other as friends and co-workers, and feeling out their relationship. They share a mutual attraction, but neither knows if the other likes men. The supporting characters in this book are fabulous, and we get to see a lot of "boys being boys" interaction as the story develops. This may have been written by two women, but there's nothing girly about the story. This book oozes testosterone.
The sexual tension in this book is thick, and the chemistry sizzles. The sex doesn't happen right away, and in this case that's perfectly fine. The story is so good that I didn't even notice that the characters didn't immediately jump each other's bones. But when the sex does happen, it's sudden and intense, and it more than makes up for the lack of sex in the first half (which I promise you won't miss anyway). The first love scene is the kind that sucks all the air out of the room and raises the temperature about 20 degrees. If you're not panting by the time that first love scene ends, you probably don't have a pulse. :)
This is a beautifully simple love story. There are no evil forces, no ridiculous conflict, no far-fetched resolution. The men are sweet and
sensitive and their love is tender, but the story is not mushy. It is beautiful to see Jake go from gruff, scary baseball coach on the field to cuddly teddy bear at home. Even though the men are sweet and sensitive, they're still men. They drink beer, they cuss, they throw things at each other, they wear sweatpants and ratty old fraternity t-shirts, and they live on pizza most of the time because they are hopeless when it comes to domestic chores.
Whether you're a sports fan, a nerd, or just a hopeless romantic, this book is sure to satisfy. |
