He spent six months looking for the beautiful, bookish girl who dropped a patch.
Finding her was the easy part.
Logan
I grip too hard.
My pitch. My family. Even the memory of Georgie, the girl I met six months ago at a Spring Training fan event. The girl with the dimpled smile, the coffee-shop patch pinned to her Chucks, and a beat-up paperback in her hands.
While I should be working on the spiraling anxiety wrecking my pitch, I find myself looking for Georgie instead. In every ballpark. Every coffee shop. Every city our team passes through.
Then I get sent down to the minors, walk into a coffee shop that feels like home—
And there she is.
Suddenly, my anxiety takes a back seat to the gorgeous girl who wears her grief like a badge of honor instead of something to hide.
But when you’ve spent your whole life gripping the things you’re afraid to lose, how do you know the difference between holding someone…
and holding on too hard?
Georgie
A dream is a wish that breaks your heart, which is why I don’t let myself dream.
My mother’s gone. My stepmother runs her coffee shop now. And I stopped believing in more a long time ago.
Then a handsome baseball player spends thirty minutes talking books with me, and I spend six months trying to forget him. Until one night, he walks into my coffee shop with my name already on his lips, and suddenly, I can’t make my heart stop wanting things I know I can’t have.
Somewhere between bookish debates, quinceañera dance floors, and a Jeep the color of a pumpkin, I start letting myself believe.
But when Logan gets called up to the Majors in time for the World Series—the Fall Classic itself—everything changes.
He’s about to live the dream he’s chased his whole life.
I’ve limited mine to this sleepy Southern town.
It’s classic, all right.
Classic heartbreak.
The Fall Classic is a deliciously swoony, closed-door baseball rom-com with laugh-out-loud banter, slow-burn chemistry, small-town charm, and found family, all with no explicit content. Books in the Catching Feelings series can be read in any order.
Book Review:
Oh, this was so good! It hurt my heart at times but I loved getting to know these characters. The Fall Classic is the fifth book in Kate Watson’s Catching Feelings series. We finally get to see Logan’s perspectives and boy did he need his own book. Logan and Georgie were both struggling in different ways and I loved how they found their person in each other.
I felt for both Logan and Georgie, they were both going through so much. I loved how real they felt. They had to learn to overcome their struggles and find the strength to move on. I was cheering for them as they figured out what they wanted. Logan was such a sweetheart. It was nice to finally get to see more behind his fears and really see him. I loved his growth throughout the book and how thoughtful he was. Georgie was also a lovely character. She was so strong and yet people had been bringing her down. I loved seeing her learn to stand up for herself.
The romance was sweet, it was slow burn. Both Georige and Logan needed to take it slow as they learned more about themselves, but they definitely fell hard. I loved their relationship and how they encouraged each other. They became each other’s safe place. The story was interesting. It was fun to see different sides of baseball and read about Georgie running a coffee truck. I loved seeing some of the old characters too.
I would totally recommend The Fall Classic! The characters were lovable and I didn’t want to put the book down. I am excited to see what will come next in the series! The Fall Classic is a closed door romantic comedy.
What I loved:
The realness of the characters

Family and sibling chats
Coffee
Baseball and books
