I need to preface this review by saying that I love Meghan Quinn and think she is a very talented writer. I also want to say that I think a lot of people will love this book, but I couldn’t get into it.
Meghan has a quirky and fun writing style, and I always laugh when reading her books, so I am not even sure where the disconnect was. I didn’t seem to latch on to Knox and Emory characters, and then it was hard for me to get behind the story. I also am finding that New Adult maybe isn’t my genre.
Again, the writing is lovely, Meghan Quinn never disappoints with her wit and charm, so I have to recommend everyone give her try.

Blurb:
Have you heard the rumor around campus about the locker room? If you haven’t, let me enlighten you: Legend has it if you bring a girl into the sacred after-game domain of the baseball locker room, it will end with a walk down the aisle. One rowdy and naked encounter against the lockers with the girl of your dreams will make her your wife. Translation: baseball players are stupidly superstitious and believe the locker room has magical powers. But not all baseball players are superstitious, me included. So when the girl I’ve fallen for brushes me off, I start to question if I need to switch my way of thinking. Maybe it’s time I finally hand out a coveted invitation to the locker room. The only question is, will she accept?

Excerpt:
This map is useless.
Easy to read, my ass. I need a magnifying glass to make out any of the color-coded buildings on this thing and unfortunately, I left my magnifying glass in my other skirt. That was sarcasm, if you didnโt catch it.
Standing next to a wonky-looking tree, I try to act as casual as possibleโhip popped out, interested glances, the usualโas I hide a school map beneath the pages of Pride and Prejudice , while off-handedly looking for the MacMillan building. But the windโthough subtleโisnโt making things easy.
Recently transferred from Cal State, Fullerton, Iโm attempting to avoid making a fool of myself on the first day of fall classes at my new school, Brentwood University.
Unfortunately, Iโm way out of my element.
For one, I know nothing about this school other than they have the best library sciences program in the country. Making the transfer a no-brainer for me the minute I realized I wanted to be a librarian. I dabbled in business at Cal State, but who was I kidding? I had no right trying to figure out micro-and macroeconomics.
A California girl through and through, Illinois is nothing like the palm trees and beaches Iโve grown up with. Donโt get me wrong, there are trees here, huge, plush, green trees everywhere, the kind of trees Bob Ross made dance on his canvas. But the smog . . . I have no idea where that is. Breathing fresh air almost feels wrong. And apparently pizza is a big deal here. Iโve heard at least three separate arguments since Iโve moved about which pizza in town is best. Letโs all be friends and be grateful there is good pizza here.
And even though this is a โsmallโ school town outside Chicago, itโs larger than life with boisterous personalities and ivy-covered buildings that cause me to believe Iโm walking on the hallowed grounds where the prosperous were educated.
Plus, I had to buy leggings for all my skirts, because the temperature doesnโt call for bare legs out here.
The wind picks up again, lifting my skirt and map at the same time. Not wanting to be known as the resident flasher on campus, I save the skirtโbecause even though I have leggings, I chose not to wear them todayโand tamp it back down on my legs as the map lifts from my book, floats into the air, twirling and swirling only to smack a passing guy right in the face.
Whap .
โWhat theโ?โ He startles and I jump into action.
โIโm so sorry,โ I say, scrambling to hold my skirt down while clutching my parted book at my chest.
The map is slowly peeled away and a pair of beautiful light blue eyes peek past the paper first, followed by the sharpest jawline Iโve ever seen, defined and tense. Light scruff matches his dirty-blond hair that is swept to the left and cut short on the sides. Dressed in a green Brentwood baseball sweatshirt and wearing a jaw-dropping smile, he chuckles and hands me the map while eyeing me up and down.
Why is he so familiar?
Those eyes.
โNot a problem, but you could have asked for help if you were lost. Slapping me with a map is an aggressive tactic, effective, but aggressive.โ
That voice, that smirk. I know it from somewhere.
Feeling a light blush creep up my cheeks, I say, โNot used to the wind.โ
He nods and thumbs behind him. โLake Michigan. Itโs a bitch in the winter.โ He studies me for a second and then nods at my map. โWhere you headed? I can help.โ There is the smallest southern drawl in his voice, nothing strong, but enough to tell me heโs not from Illinois.
I know that voice. I remember specifically thinking it was hot.
Tamping down my map and folding it in my book that I snap shut quickly, I say, โI promised Iโd figure this all out on my own, but looks like I might need a little help after all.โ
โDonโt blame yourself; this campus is a maze with no rhyme or reason. I was lost my entire first semester. Canโt tell you how many times I was late to class.โ
โThatโs reassuring.โ
He tilts his head to the side and gives me a small once-over. โI know you.โ I donโt say anything and just as his eyes land on my chest, a smile creeps over his face, a light bulb lighting in his head. โYouโre the girl who helped me find my room on Saturday.โ
Oh.
Shit.
Itโs the yellow-door baseball guy.
He leans forward, hands stuffed in his pockets and says, โI never forget a good pair of tits.โ
As if I wasnโt blushing enough already.
