Editorial Review: Liz Elliott is fast approaching forty as a successful business woman and single mother to nineteen-year-old daughter, Becca. Becca is a freshman at Ashton, Vermont's Chilton College. She is also a rising star for the Lady Stingers basketball team, just as her mother had been twenty-years-ago. But in those early days, a a dirty little secret had collapsed Liz's world - a secret she has kept hidden from everyone - especially her daughter. When Liz accepts Becca's challenge to return to college and complete her degree as well as play her last year of basketball eligibility, she is met with resistance from the new head coach. Coach Sheridan Ross has no patience for babysitting an over-the-hill athlete - not as long as she has her own plans to move up the career coaching ladder as quickly as possible. Sparks soon begin to fly. Then Liz's world begins to crumble when the secret from her past returns to Ashton...

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Solid story, but thin on romance
I really want to love Kenna White's work. I *like* her plots, her characters and the pacing. I've read her early work and I've seen her grow as an author. She just needs a little nudge from a good editor in the right direction and I'd absolutely love her stuff. What I think she lacks is a little more romance, a little more tension and flirtations between the love interests. Oh, and more sex. Then her work would be perfect.
Rating: - Nope
So I did it, I read another Kenna White. As with the other book, it was a good story, solid writing, likeable characters.
Unfortunately, as with the other book, the ending here was rushed as well, added to the fact that a rather ludicrous storyline was added towards the end that really didn't accomplish anything toward the major plot.
I'm not sure what makes writers to choose that their books are better if they go out with a bang. That works for some story lines but here ... Read More
Rating: - Ah...Not So Great
I enjoyed the story in Romancing the Zone, the relationship between Liz and Sheridan is wonderful and romantic. Their influence on the team is one most can relate to and enjoy reading about.
However, and this may have been just my book, I found the grammar and spelling mistakes took away from the story. My book had many spelling errors or entire words left out, to where I'd read a sentence and have to read it again to fill in the word so I knew what it was saying. Also, there were ... Read More
Rating: - It's a winner!
I very much enjoyed this book and I'm looking forward to reading more of Kendra White's work.
Having played college basketball I am a fan of the game, but I think even those who know little about sports can still relate to the characters and be captured by the story.
I was especially impressed with the clever plotline of an older woman being drawn back to college to finish her degree, return for her final year of eligibility and then falling for the coach...very original.
Rating: - Romance on the Basketball Court
If you enjoy women's basketball, this romance on the court will entertain you. You'll be captivated by the development of this relationship.
