Alex has been let go by his minor league team because of injuries. Elijah is a student struggling to find money to continue college. Both have been told about Black Stallion Studios where they can make money by making movies. The owner of the studio pairs them in their first movie. While Alex has to be careful not to be seen in these movies, he learns more about himself and others through doing these movies. Elijah and Alex develop feelings for each other, but Elijah does not want to be Alex's dirty little secret. Can they work out their problems? Will their love be enough to stay together?

I enjoyed this book. A lot happens but it is so real. I liked Alex and Elijah. They are in a difficult position and have to make decisions. So often Alex picks his PR over Elijah. I could understand why Elijah felt what he did. I would not want to be in his position. I liked when Alex's catcher tells him the truth about how he treats Elijah. I appreciated how Alex took the advice seriously. I liked the support Alex was shown and given.

I look forward to more of this series.… (más)
