About this listen

My name is Ace Watson, and I'm having an existential crisis.

I finished last season as one of the league's best pitchers. Baseball's smooth-talking boy wonder. The future of The New York Lions.

I'm starting this season as the worst.

I don't want to sound dramatic, but the fault lies entirely with Payton Lopez. She walked into my life with her mile-long legs and dark brown waves and threw me the curviest of all curve balls. Overnight, my ability to pitch disappeared with my ability to charm, and I found myself riding a one-way ticket to being the most expensive bench warmer in the M.L.B.

The only solution: get Payton to fix what she broke, something she agrees to on one very easy condition.

Before long, what started as a way to get my pitch back soon turned into any excuse I could find for us to spend time together. Before long, I had everything I didn't even realize I wanted.

Now, I just need to prove to her that while I exist without baseball, I can't live without her.

Payton Lopez might have thrown me a curveball, but I'm pitching it right back.

The Shake Off is a grumpy/sunshine, friends-with-benefits, sizzling TikTok sensation. Perfect for fans of Hannah Grace and Elle Kennedy.

Loved these Narrators!

I read the physical book when it came out and loved it, so had to get my hands on the audio too!

Baseball romance with a one night stand gone wrong!

The Shake Off is a baseball romance from Lulu Moore with an older heroine (she’s 7 years older) and kicks off with a one night stand gone wrong!

Payton works in publishing and the story starts with her birthday wish coming true, Ace Watson in her bed. Excepttttt it doesn’t go so well and when he doesn’t live up to her fantasy she sends him packing the next morning. Ace Watson is the cocky pitcher for the New York Lions baseball team, but after their one night stand and finding out Payton didn’t have the great time he thought he delivered, well his world kind of spirals. He ends up with the yips and feeling like he lost his mojo after she tells him it wasn’t that enjoyable! Cue him and his friends/teammates grabbing every Cosmo magazine they can get their hands on to find out exactly how to give pleasure! When Payton’s offered her dream job in exchange for some NY Lions gear, she ends up hitting up Ace for a bargain…and offering some friends with benefits/lessons while they’re at it.

This was a fun one and I always enjoy Lulu Moore’s books. I did still love the first book in this series more but that one hits my fav trope (second chance). I love the friend group and the teammates and I can’t wait for the next book in the series later this summer.

I couldn't wait to listen to this one after I finished the first book. I loved Ace, and I knew he would be a favorite.

This one night stand gone wrong baseball romance had me laughing and swooning. Payton says it like it is, and that is one of my favorite things about her. She has so much sass and doesn't apologize for it.
Ace is a wonderful character and loyal to his friends. I adored him and loved seeing him get his HEA.

Lee Samuels and Ramona Master did an awesome job with this one. I don't think I have listened to Ramona before and loved her! I thoroughly enjoyed this audio.
Lee Samuels is one that I will listen to and always enjoy.

I am loving this series.

Love the New York Lions

AUDIOBOOK / ebook review:

Another great baseball romance from Lulu Moore and our beloved New York Lions baseball team. Book two in the New York Lions series (can also be enjoyed as a standalone) following Major League pitcher Ace Watson and children’s book editor and team owners friend Payton Lopez. After Ace and Payton have a one night stand, Ace wakes up the next morning thinking he’s every women’s desire, and Payton, not feeling that satisfaction one bit, lets Ace know it. After letting it soaking in, Ace is in a major funk. Now not only is he questioning every hook up he’s ever had, his pitching game suffers too. Ace goes on a mission to not only learn the ways of women but get his pitching game back in order, and his lucky charm, Payton Lopez. I really enjoyed this book and the way that Payton was in charge, she was confident in what she wanted and not afraid to go after it. I loved how this was a secret hook up, yet she wasn’t afraid to tell her close girl friends, which lead to great advice and epic conversations. Ace fell fast and fell hard and when she wasn’t falling all over him every moment, he worked harder. With Ace on the road playing baseball Payton was independent and supportive and I enjoyed that part of the story, she wasn’t threatened by his status and she wanted to see him do well.
Overall this was a fun baseball romance with some great “teaching” moments and a sweet HEA. Romona Master and Lee Samuel were fantastic narrating this book in dual. They both gave each character their own personalities and expressed their confidence as well as moment of vulnerability so well. They were able to bring their chemistry to life and I loved hearing their laughs when bantering back and forth as well as their hot steamy growls and demands when things were getting spicy. A great pair as Payton and Ace.

I really love Ramona&Lee!

Simply wow! I loved the story and Lulu's storytelling but let me tell you: this is one is even better on audio!

Ramona performance was so amazing and every second in this one was SUPERB!!

I laugh SO MUCH with this one! I wasn't expecting to love Ace’s story as much as I did but oh man his plot was… SO GOOD!

Firstly, the beginning of this book was the funniest - Ace’s unbeliever about Payton's reaction was so, so good and I can’t stop laughing when I think about that particular scene. And the way both Lee and Ramona delivered the fun scenes was SIMPLY WOW.

Lulu’s sense of humor is always so good and I love every single moment she writes.

The book was super funny but there were some parts I was completely obsessed over this couple and how Ace loved Payton - oh Lord!!

It’s also spicier than the first one but in the best way possible.

This series just became one of my favorites and I can’t wait for the next books.
