About The Art of Catching Feelings
'Unfailingly sweet and surprisingly sexy at the same time, The Art of Catching Feelings is a home run' JODI PICOULT, Sunday Times bestselling author of Mad Honey 'Chris and Daphne's achingly vulnerable, hot slide into love was so masterfully crafted with intimacy and care that I was tempted to go right back to the first page once I finished (fine, and maybe I did)' JESSICA JOYCE, bestselling author of You, with a View - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Daphne Brink doesn’t follow baseball, but watching “America’s Snoozefest” certainly beats sitting at home in the days after she signs her divorce papers. After one too many ballpark beers, she heckles Carolina Battery player Chris Kepler, who quickly proves there might actually be a little crying in baseball. Horrified, Daphne reaches out to Chris on social media to apologize . . . but forgets to identify herself as his heckler in her message. Chris doesn’t usually respond to random fans on social media, but when a DM from “Duckie” catches his eye, he impulsively messages back. Duckie is sweet, funny, and seems to understand him in a way no one else does. Daphne isn’t sure how much longer she can keep lying to Chris, especially as she starts working with the team in real life and their feelings for each other deepen. When he finds out the truth, will it be three strikes, she’s out? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Readers love The Art of Catching Feelings 'Sweet, swoony, and a little bit steamy, Thompson’s latest blends popular romance tropes with a heartfelt look at life’s curve balls, and how we help each other move forward' 'Each Alicia Thompson book is my new favorite book — but THIS one is just perfection. I love Thompson's ability to give flawed, real-feeling people HEAs. I finished in one sitting even though I didn't want it to end' 'Alicia Thompson is now three-for-three with phenomenal contemporary romance novels . . . This was a unique spin on the "You've Got Mail"/"Bookshop Around the Corner" secret pen pal/real life tension trope . . . A TOTAL HOME RUN' 'A heartwarming love story that not only made me laugh out loud but also tugged at my heartstrings . . . As a fan of sports romance, this book is a perfect example of why I love the genre so much . . . 5 stars without a doubt!'
