Chance is the star pitcher for the San Francisco Cougars. He is in need of a date for a family wedding in Hawaii and he hatches a plan to ask his friend and teammate's sister, Sierra. Sierra has a bit of a crush on Chance already. But both know the score. There are bro-code and fake date rules. No hanky panky should be had. Just friends making a splash at the wedding so his shrew of the ex and well-meaning family members do not take pity on him.

Chase is the epitome of a good guy. He follows the rules. He cares about other's feelings and needs. He is a people pleaser and wants everyone to like him and be happy. He is kind of adorkable in his attempts at the dating scene. I found him to be endearing, charming, and sexy. 

Sierra is her own woman. She seeks out control and likes to be in charge of her own decisions. She is sassy, sarcastic, and owns her own bar. She is untrusting and picky about men. She does not want the hassle and heartbreak of a relationship but wants to finally go all the way in the bedroom.

Temptation. Chemistry. Fire. Camaraderie. Fun. 

These two really do like each other. They have great banter, common interests, similar goals, and ethics, and are very devoted to their careers. They have both been burned by relationships and do not want to jump back into one. But the sexual tension is strong with these two and they cannot avoid it or deny it. Paradise and each other are making them come alive. Maybe those rules can be bent since it is a special occasion and neither wants more? Sounds like a solid plan for vacation nookie and then go home friends. 

Sometimes rules get bent. Lines get blurred. Feelings emerge. Excitement and impulsivity win over planning and logic. And things can veer off into other directions. 

This is a flirty, fun, heartfelt, best-friends-sister, friends-to-lovers, go-a-bit-crazy-on-vacation rom-com. I adored both Chance and Sierra and thought they made such a wonderful match. Sure there are a few complications and they both need to learn to get out of their own way at times. 

I loved getting more with his twin brother, TJ. Their relationship is a special part of the story and really helps define Chance's personality as well. They are different, but also such great supportive siblings. I was excited to get more with her brother, Grant, who I adore. Some of the other baseball guys filter in and out as well. And her girlfriends are spunky (Special shout-outs to Clementine and Rory).  I love this crew and series.
