Totally Played (Love in Play #5)

Here's Becca Jackson's "Totally Played." Its the fifth novel in her Love in Play series. 

["Meet Calvin Parks, the sweetest guy to ever set foot on a banana ball field.

CALVIN
I was just supposed to be a body double, a stand-in to save my twin brother Tony’s dating app rating after two no-shows, and a raging flu.
One quick drink, some polite small talk, and out.
Simple, right?
As a shortstop, I’m used to quick thinking, but even I’m surprised by how quickly I gave up the whole ruse. One smile from this guy and I’m spilling my guts.
I buy him dinner to make up for the switch up, and with the pressure off, what started as a fake out turns into a genuine good time. We bond over baseball, battle it out for the king of the claw machines, and somehow end up on Tim’s rooftop wrangling wayward kittens with the guys.
It's the best bro-date I’ve ever had.
Except I forgot one thing: coming clean to Tony. And when he reschedules his date with Ashley like we planned, I start feeling way too territorial for a straight man.
Why do I feel like I just gave up a grand slam... and I’m the idiot who pitched it?"]

I needed a low-angst, sweet as fuck, simple romance. Granted, it wasn't entirely free of angst and there were lots of spicy moments and it wasn't 100% simple, but this book was a glorious break from my dark romances. 

Their connection and chemistry was instant. Their friendship was easy. Their romantic connection was there from the start, even if our sweet Calvin didn't understand everything at frist. 

Clavin and Ash were perfect together. Even all of their quirks and idiosyncrasies matched. They made each other happier and supported each other in everything, even if they were both constantly traveling. But they made it work. They made it work with butterflies and cute texts and giant Snickers bars.
