“Hard Pass.”That’s what the last girl I slept with said when she got her first sober glimpse of me. She laughed, walked out of my penthouse—and I never saw her again. It doesn’t matter that I’m a rich, professional athlete; what mattered was my face.
Beauty might only be skin deep for some—but I know better.
“Pay Up.”
That’s what the last girl I spoke to said over the phone when I made her an offer she couldn’t refuse. Desperate to sell a set of rare baseball cards, she’s clever and entertaining. I’m instantly smitten, but nowhere ready to reveal myself. Thank god she has no idea who I am—or what I look like.
I’m a professional athlete--how hard can playing the love game be?

Hard Pass is the first book in the Trophy Boyfriends series by Sara Ney. This is Miranda and Noah's story. Noah is a pro baseball player. He is a bit of a shy, loner and has a complex about his looks, based on his past experience with women. Miranda is recently graduated and wants to open her own design business. Miranda's grandfather left her his valuable baseball card collection that she plans on selling to raise money to start her business. When she places an ad online selling her cards, Noah sees the ad and jumps at the chance to own a piece of his sport's history. He texts her and the two have an instant chemistry. Over time, as they text about the cards, their conversations lead to an attraction and eventually meeting up and dating.
This book was a very light, easy read. The meet cute and the texting were fun and were my favorite part. I liked the story, but there was not much to the story beyond the meet cute. It felt more like a novella than a full book. I never felt like the couple grew fully comfortable with or got to know each other super well. This book has the familiar feel of Ms. Ney's Jock Hard series. The characters are no longer in college and are supposed to be a bit more mature, but I didn't quite feel like they were. Still, I liked Noah and Miranda. Noah was sweet and shy. He had a complex about his looks and thought he was ugly. Miranda never thought that and was attracted to him right away. I did find it a little odd that he never told her about his insecurity about his looks, when it would have explained his behavior more. Still, I thought they were a cute, sweet couple and there is little drama between them.
Overall, this was a cute, low angst read. I enjoyed Miranda and Noah's relationship. I like Ms. Ney's writing and this was a fun start to a new series. I look forward to what she comes up with next.
