On The DL - Laramie Briscoe - Release Blitz






Title: On the DL
Series: The MVP Duet #1
Author: Laramie Briscoe
Genre: Sports/Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 20, 2018




A second-chance romance as scorching hot as a baseball diamond in August.


Slater "Savage" Harlow


Winning the MVP award for the Birmingham Bandits last year was the highlight of my baseball career. It was the culmination of childhood dreams, calculated adult decisions, sacrifice, and a hell of a lot of focus. Tearing my ACL in spring training? Not what I expected at all.


Now I'm home, in small town Georgia, rehabbing in the comfort of my own home, with people I know. I'm connecting with friends I haven't had time to talk to in years, spending days at home with my parents, and getting to watch my little brother play minor league baseball.


What I don't expect is to see Malone Fulcher walking into Del's Diner one morning while having my coffee and egg whites.


She's old flame, the one who got away, and the woman I compare all others to.


Malone Fulcher


Spending the summer in my hometown wasn't what I had planned, but it's what I need. Recovering from a hard year, both personally and professionally, I need to reconnect with who I am. When my mom encouraged me to come home and do some soul searching, I can't say no.


Memories are all over this small town, from the Baptist Church to the east field on my parents farm, to the diner. On my second day in town, I decide to go in, memories be damned.


I lost my breath as soon as I saw "Savage" Harlow sitting alone at a booth. Our eyes lock, my heart flutters, and my hands shake - all the same way they did back in high school. But back then we couldn't make it work. Going our separate ways to differing colleges, we decided we weren't meant to be.


A decade later, as soon as our eyes meet, I'm wondering if we were right, because those green eyes of his do nothing but take me to a past that I can see being my future.


Author's Note: This does end in somewhat of a cliffhanger!

4 Stars 

On The DL is quite different from what I've come to know and love from Ms Briscoe.  I quite enjoyed this sports romance, with characters that are complex, whilst at times frustrating, also very endearing. 

Slater and Malone were childhood sweethearts who didn't part on the best of terms.  When they both find themselves back in their hometown ten years later, that have both aged, matured and changed, but the sparks once again fly, and their chemistry is undeniable. 

A story of second chances, growing and learning from mistakes and regrets of the past. 

This title does end on a cliffhanger, and I for one will be eagerly awaiting the conclusion to Malone and Slater's story with the second title in the duet.
