This was the first book that I have read of Collette West’s and I loved every minute of Game Changer. Sasha and Brooks relationship not only developed professionally, with Brooks guiding Sasha through the job of being a professional baseball player, a friendship develops between them eventually leading to a romantic relationship. Collette’s writing was spot-on and it was exciting to see Sasha’s and Brooks’s relationship grow. Sasha’s story seemed realistic with the issues that the first female baseball player might experience. I really enjoyed Game Changer and it is a definite recommend to the sport-loving reader.
Collette West grew up as somewhat of a jock-nerd hybrid. Entering the world three weeks premature, her dad nearly missed her birth because he had seats behind the dugout for a sold-out, highly-anticipated match-up between two of baseball's biggest rivals. Not to be outdone, her book-loving mom taught her how to read by the time she was three. A love of the game coupled with an appreciation for the written word were instilled in Collette's impressionable brain from a young age. No wonder her characters believe in the philosophy: sports + romance = a little slice of heaven. Splitting her time between the Pocono Mountains and Manhattan, Collette indulges her inner fangirl by going to as many games as she can from hockey to baseball and downloading every sports romance novel in existence onto her iPad. When she's not clicking away on her laptop, she enjoys walking her dog in Central Park, satisfying her caffeine craving at the Starbucks on Broadway and keeping an eye out for Mr. Right. But above all, she loves dishing with her readers. She is the author of the New York Kings series which includes: GAME CHANGER, GAME ON, PERFECT GAME, INSIDE GAME and GAME WINNER and the Stockton Beavers series which includes: SINGLE.
