The Baseball Card Boyfriend is the third book in the Starrycard Creek series featuring the Starrycard siblings.
About The Baseball Card Boyfriend
The Baseball Card Boyfriend begins with Christian having suffered a career ending injury several months ago. He had surgery but lacked commitment in his physical therapy. He does not know what to do with his life, so instead he is wallowing in alcohol and dreams.
Maggie just suffered several personal losses in her life. She has nothing left. When she joins her boyfriend in Rocky Mountain, she suffers yet another loss. She boards a bus headed to find Christian. She does not understand why her grandfather is sending her to him, but she is honoring his wishes.
On her way to find Christian, Maggie sees a dog caught on the train tracks. She makes the bus driver stop and let her out. She must save this dog. Christian sees her running to the tracks, but there is a train barrelling down on her and the dog. He runs to help her.
When he gets a good look at her, she is his dream girl. But how is this possible? When his brother, Owen, shows up, he scares Maggie. She loses her footing, stumbles and hits her head on the train tracks. Do you notice these tracks seem to be a danger to everyone in this story?
When she is released from the hospital, Christian and Owen get in to a debate on who Maggie should stay with. Maggie solves the problem by having Christian hire her as his housekeeper. Little does she know what she has just signed up for.
Over the next few weeks, we see Christian and Maggie exploring new experiences. Breaking and entering. Indecent exposure. Arson, kind of.
Enter Judge Ironside. He is such a curmudgeon and desperately wants to throw the book at Christian. But Maggie charms him with her knowledge of pie. She convinces him that she can help him and his cronies win the Donnelly Days Pie Baking contest. If she succeeds and they win, all charges will be dropped against her and Christian. If she fails and they do not win, she and Christian will clean toilets.
Everything happens so quickly from this point on. Pies are baked. Recipes are modified. Stumble Juice is consumed in vast quantities. At one point there is a slumber party at Christian’s ranch.
Impressions
I must admit I love the judges. Their lives are so intertwined and yet they are all so different. All three have lost their wives. But Ironside plays such a huge role as the leader of this motley crew. He may be gruff, but he has a heart of gold. I dare you not to fall in love with him.
And let us not forget about a male lead, Christian. I mean he has a freaking helicopter and he is the pilot. What woman in their right mind would not swoon at that.
But the best part is Gramps. The man is sentimental, talking about the good old days. Explaining about how the Starrycard men fall hard and fast when they find the right woman. He is mesmerizing. The Stumble Juice probably has something to do with that.
This was my first Krista Sandor book. I now need to go back and read the first two books in this series. And I definitely cannot wait for Owen to get his story. I need to know what woman will be able to tame him.
