This is the third book in the series and can be read as a standalone. Avery is a feminist raised by a feminist mother who was so busy breaking barriers that she neglected her daughter. Avery is so independent that when she decides to have a child, she decides to become a single mother with a sperm donor instead of a baby daddy. When the identity of that sperm donor is revealed due to a hacking incident, she has to decide whether she is going it alone to prove that she doesn't need anyone, or whether she can make room for Dom.

While the heroines in the first two books were independent, Avery is truly the feminist in the more strict and narrow sense of the word. In fact it becomes such a limiting definition that she almost becomes her mother. It is her finding her own way to be true to her feminism roots while allowing herself to need her friends and Dom. No one can go it alone.

She wears caftans, has frizzy hair, is a tenured professor, and is falling in love with a university baseball coach. She is not as smart as she thinks she is and he is not the dumb jock she'd like to think he is. They are both more textured and multi-faceted than that. And there were sizzling hot sex scenes with a pregnant and horny Avery and Dom.

As she is undergoing some unpleasant changes, Dom wants to be there for her if she can find a space for him and if he is willing to insist she does. They were not perfect. Both said less than they wanted and hurt each other.

I love that the series features heroines that are mature late 30s to late 40s. Pregnancy is different for a woman then. It also touched in on choices made later in life that may seem as if it is too late to undo, redo, or to even try for. It adds a poignancy and emotional depth to the romances and series.

Note: I received it as an advance review copy, but enjoyed it enough to purchase a copy as well.

Double Play Love Games Book 3 eBook Maggie Wells Reviews

This was a wonderful romance story with lots of interesting characters and a really great love story. I enjoyed the pace of this book from start to finish, it was perfect.
There were a few grammatical errors, but overall the author did an amazing job developing this story.
I enjoyed the many layers of this story. Double Play is a story of making choices, of knowing what you want, and how to get it even when life throws curve balls.
Avery is independent, comfortable in her own skin, and knows that she doesn't need a man to "complete" her. She's wanted a baby as long as she can remember and not having (or wanting a significant other) isn't a problem. She has a plan, and is sticking to it, sperm bank, anonymous donor, and with any luck a baby on board.
But what happens when your plan gets a monkey wrench tossed in? What happens when the anonymous donor suddenly isn't so anonymous anymore, and he turns out to be someone you know (in an up close and naked way)?
Dom wasn't looking for a long term commitment when he and Avery acted on their mutual attraction (once). As a matter of fact while it was enjoyable, neither really expected a repeat. After all, Avery had her plans for motherhood and Dom was content to keep his life just as it was.
But that's the funny thing about plans, they sometimes don't go the way you want (or thing you want) them to.
It was a road of discovery, and letting go of one path and seeing that just because you are very capable of doing things on your own, that you don't necessarily have too.
I also want to say that I think I enjoyed just as much the relationships between Avery and her two best friends, Millie and Kate. They never sugar coated how they felt, they were always in Avery's corner, and they lifted each other up. it was women empowerment at its best.
Trademark brilliant Maggie Wells--the writing is effortless, the dialogue smart, and the complex characters are fully-realized and worth rooting for. If you want to get lost in romance that goes deep, this entire series is a must-read.
This is not an easy book to review. The dialogue is amazingly witty, crisp, and intelligent. I’m just not crazy about the main female character. Avery Preston is a professor who is brash, outspoken, and not that nice, especially to her “boyfriend”. Dominick Mann is the baseball coach at the same college and is not dumb, but his character development is not as significant as Avery’s. He comes across as a little uninspiring except for his muscles. Almost like the author couldn’t help making Avery a more colorful and lush character.

The storyline of a feminist woman having artificial insemination to get pregnant, and accidentally finding out the sperm donor’s name.......a man she had a one night physical relationship with, is clever. Her girlfriends are also good characters; again, any other men in the story are not that interesting. Lots of steamy sex fits with the storyline; it’s not gratuitous. It’s a good read, entertaining and engrossing.
I love that this isn't your typical romance. It's a story that will make you think, that's both inspiring and empowering, and it centers around the most perfectly imperfect couple. Dom and Avery share a casual night together that neither is anxious to relive, but fate draws them together again in the most unexpected way.

The true beauty of this story is not in the revelation itself, nor in the happily ever after; it's the journey in between. I've never read a more humanized couple, and because they're written so realistically, with flaws and fears and stubborn streaks a mile wide, you can't help but root for them.

I found it so easy to relate to Avery for various reasons, but I was surprised to find that not only did I care for her, I actually started believing I could BE her. That I could have a baby if I wanted to, when I wanted to. Even if I don't get a Dom. This book gave me hope, and I'm so grateful it came along when it did.
