Just one
short season ago, major league center fielder John Roper had it all: the
looks--and personal life--of a sports hero and the public's adoration. But this
hot property's lucky streak has run out. After a World Series disaster, fans
diss him, shock jocks mock him and his dysfunctional family hassles him for
money he really can't spare. Now it's up to him, and Hot Zone publicist Amy
Stone, to get his life back on track. Amy finds it's easier said than done.
What with the constant intrusions of his nutty family, a crazed fan playing
stalker, and Roper's refusal to put his own needs first, she's starting to
think that life in the fast lane isn't all it's cracked up to be. But when the
two retreat to a secluded lodge, the sexy center fielder throws Amy a curveball--one
she never saw coming....

Hot
Property is another winner in the Hot Zone series. Since each of the
Jordan sisters have each found their happily ever afters, it was time
for another Hot Zone member to find happiness. We finally get John Roper's
story and it was totally worth the wait.
I loved that Spencer's niece Amy Stone came to work at Hot Zone.
I loved meeting her in Hot Item and was happy we got to know more about her
in Hot Property. The fact that Amy and Roper were thrown together
from the moment Amy arrived at Hot Zone made my heart sing. I knew John Roper
needed a strong woman in his life. Not only because he was a celebrity baseball
player, but he needed someone to help him deal with is family. Amy has had
years of practice dealing with difficult family members thanks to her mom
and aunt, who tend to get into all sort of scrapes. They are one of the main
reasons Amy wanted to move away to New York. I loved that while Amy could see
how John needed to deal with his family, she was totally blind to dealing
with her own family until John pointed it out to her.
John and Amy had the absolute best chemistry. I seriously loved
they actually were friends before they became lovers. I felt like it made
their relationship stronger overall, not that there weren't some stumbling
blocks on both sides. However when they were together, they pretty much
burned up the sheets. I also loved they both had to learn to handle their
families and fight to make their relationship work.
Hot
Property was a wonderful end to one of my favorite series ever from
Carly Phillips. While I fully believe readers should read the
entire series in order, I also feel strongly that with the Hot Zone
series, each book reads well as a stand-alone story as well.
