I have three superstitions I live by:1. No dating all season.2. Don’t jinx a no-hitter while one’s in progress. 3. Be cold-hearted. If you find something you think about more than baseball, destroy it. Calliope Thomas is one of those things. Ever since she left a bad review on the Max Energy Drink I endorse, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about her. Obviously, when she said she hoped I had … she said she hoped I had a losing season, I had to meet her and get her to take the words back.
Now, she’s making me do insane things. Like, obsess over the color of her panties or if I can make her blush. Read superstition one—I don’t do this sort of thing.
I play ball, not chase after a woman I barely know.
But, I am, and she wants nothing to do with me.
She thinks I’m the devil.
And I have to say she makes me want to sin.
I’m becoming a borderline stalker.
And to make matters worse she’s affecting my game.
I can’t pitch.
I can’t hit.
I can’t focus.
Something needs to give, and it won’t be me.

OH.MY.LANTA this book was so good! No wait, that doesn’t do this book justice. Let me try again…this book was next level awesome. I haven’t laughed so much while reading a book in a long time. But it wasn’t just the banter, quick wit or animosity between Max and Calliope that made the story great. There was also the super hot aspects and I do mean SUPER HOT. Like don’t read this book around people because you will blush and if you have kids that can read you need to tell them to move along lol. Add in a dash of romance and it’s just perfection. I just put this book down and I am anxious to pick up the next one! This is definitely a must read if you love humor, romance and heat!
5 frosty stars!
I literally couldn’t put this book down and read it in one sitting. Calliope is a spitfire when she needs to be and I couldn’t stop laughing and then when you add Max into the mix this story gets better and better. What I found enjoyable about book is that we’re given a sports romance but it’s not completely wrapped around baseball the entire time. We’re given a page turning enemies to lovers story that keeps you hooked and wanting to cheer these two on no matter what gets in the way. A great read that I highly recommend you bump to the top of your TBR list.
I read an advanced copy for an honest review.
This book starts out like a twisted version of “You’ve Got Mail”. Calliope writes a bad review about Max’s energy drink and insults are traded back and forth.
She thinks he’s Satan, and He can’t stop thinking about her.
Max decides to insert himself into Calliope’s life, after doing a Skype inteview with her and chemistry these two create is out of this world.
This book will have you laughing out loud while reading. It will also make you feel like you need to be wearing potholders while reading this due to the fact that your Kindle will melt from the HOT sex scenes.
Anyway you look at it, this book is a Homerun!
Logan Chance hit out of the ballpark with this book. It was hot, funny the characters sucked me from the beginning to end . Logan never disappointed me with his writing he gives you everything. That is what he does. This book earned the every good thing said about it.
“Calliope,
Fail? I never fail. And maybe you
could spare a star from I Fucked Frosty?
Five stars for fucking a snowman
seems a bit excessive. No?
Best regards,
Max Hunter”
Cold-Hearted Baller is so incredibly witty. Sexy times that were seriously intense and effing hot!
Every single character and aspect of this book was golden. I fell in love with them all..and want more and more!
Please do a spin off series with Davis, the biker bar and Munch!

Review:
5/5
Cold Hearted Baller just made the list of one of my all time favorite sport romances. Calliope, the lovable, funny, some what insecure woman, was so relatable to me. Have you ever written a bad review because something made you so mad you gave it a one star, and then felt guilty about it? Well, this woman has and so had Calliope. When Calliope drinks an energy drink, she had a bad reaction to it, making her a disaster to be around, and loses her next big client. So in her fury, she sends a bad review to the company, and Max the pitcher for the Larks, who is the spokesperson sends her a reply back. Max, seems to be a player not just on the field, but off the field, yet he is so much more. He is actually a good guy, but loves to egg her on, and Calliope just wants him to stop. Max can’t understand why he can’t get enough of her, and Calliope does things with Max she never thought she would do. Calliope will do anything that it takes to not fall in love with him, but Max might not let her.
First I like to thank Logan Chance Author for writing this amazing story. The storyline, was funny, sweet, and a realistic portrayal of a woman’s insecurities, that wasn’t over the top. The main characters chemistry was hot and oh so spicy, and I should know being from Louisiana. They had some really good steamy reads, that you don’t want to miss. This book has brighten my day, and my stomach a little bit sore from laughing, from the banter between Max and Calliope. If you love funny, sweet, and steamy this is the book for you.
Wow! This book was hot and I loved the plot. The only reason that I didn’t give it 5 stars was because calliope was annoying as hell. She was really immature for someone who was 29 years old. She was to wishy washy. She never could make up her mind about her one feelings. I also didn’t like the kinky sex throat choking with a belt. I also felt uncomfortable about how much the Lords name was constantly taken in vain. That’s not cool. With all that being said this was my favorite book by this author. Until next time y’all happy reading.
This book had me wetting my pants from the first chapter, this couple are hilarious and match each other perfectly. When Calliope Thomas decides she needs to leave a review on a product that leaves her with cake on her face or should I say someone’s lap. Max is the face of this product and doesn’t take kindly to the less than stellar review. A battle of the wits between these two starts a connection that will have them both reaching for a five star review of their own. If it is a steamy romance packed with hilarious moments that lights you up then one click away.
Cold Hearted Baller is a baseball romance that is not only steamy but is packed with some seriously hilarious moments. A witty love story that will fill your heart with happiness and joy. Max and Calliope are characters that will win your heart in less than an innings and have you hoping that they get a home run with their HEA. The chemistry between these two is so heated that there will be no chance of getting frost bite. This is a story that has you feeling lighter and beaming from the delight and satisfaction it leaves you with.
This is the first time I’ve read anything by Logan Chance,and holy hotness he did not disappoint. This book is fun,sexy,and takes an unexpected journey. A definite must read. This may be the first time I’ve read Logan Chance,but it will not be the last time. Do yourself a favor and check it out.
Logan never disappoints his readers and once again has given us a funny, quirky fun read, This book had me LOL from start to finish. I could not put it down until it was finished. The banter & the chemistry between these two was fantastic. She is funny, sexy and a vixen all rolled into one, which is a perfect match for his dirty talking and ego.
Wow! Logan (pen name for Logan Chance) has written a steamy, sexy book about Max, a baseball player, and Calliope, a baker, that will have you laughing out loud and fanning yourself.
Max has a lovable filthy mouth that keeps the story moving and makes you want to see what he says and does next. And Calliope, I love a woman who can get dirty with the best of them!
A great story of overcoming an ingrained fear because of the past.
I want to leave a bad review, just to see the outcome. Just kidding! This was a very hot, funny at times, easy to read sports romance. I enjoyed the book but there was something missing that didn’t reach the same heights as some of this authors others books.
Maybe it was all the indecisiveness and the jealousy that ruined it for me. The heroine Calliope lacked a backbone and continually kept giving into Max. Don’t let my review stop you, make your own decision because it may be my age.
Oh goodness!! I loved this so much!!! Logan has never disappointed and bringing more laughable moments with this one hit it out of the park!
I already loved the hell out of Calliope because she just seemed like the carefree, living her life to the fullest kind of woman and that spoke to me. I felt so giddy after their first interaction and laughed out loud (super loud). I hated seeing her doubt things and make sacrifices she didn’t have to make. But I held out hope….
Max won me over from that first dang smile!! I needed him in my life and I couldn’t help but swoon every second of this book! The sex was hot and understandable quick but it didn’t take away from the heat of the moment. The caveman quality I love about men seemed tame in spots but other than that the connection they had nearly had me seeing stars!!
This one seemed different than the other Logan Chance books I’ve read… I’m not sure what it could be but it’s nothing bad. I honestly couldn’t tell if this book was written by a woman or man. I FELT the characters as the should be in real life. Incredible job Logan!! I can’t wait for the next experience!!!
Hands down my favorite Logan Chance book to date! I could not put it down and I had to finish it. Calliope and Max could not be more different people and their introduction to each other couldn’t be more awkward, but their evolution of the relationship is volatile. Laugh out loud moments and steamy bits throughout kept me captivated. A definite must read!
This is such a great story! While I own 3 other Logan Chance books this is the first I have gotten read. I am surprised and found it so enjoyable. His writing is fast paced and full of crazy thoughts/antics plus their “special” time together is super spicy!
Calliope just cracked me up! She is so expressive in her thoughts. I was surprised how she looked forward to rougher sexy times. She seemed so innocent. Her back and forth with Max was so sexy and spontaneous. I loved reading every second!
The names she gives him in her phone? Plus how she refers to him as Satan with all her thoughts and comments. OMG! So awesome! I laughed and laughed.
Obviously this won’t be my last Logan Chance story. I look forward to reading more and this has bumped his books up on my TBR list! Well Done!
4 stars
After reading Logan’s Cold Hearted Baller, I’m reminded how much I love the boys of summer!
When a girl jazzed on energy drinks goes online, anything can happen. Maybe Calliope should’ve waited until her heart rate had returned to normal before posting a scathing review of said energy drink but then she wouldn’t have met the guy that causes her heart rate to permanently soar!
Max, aka the baller, and Calliope, aka the baker, were hysterical, adorable and had sizzling chemistry! What a fun read!

Whoa! This is one hot and funny read you will not want to put down! I couldn’t help but finish Cold Hearted Baller in one sitting! Calliope is ‘energetic’ and sassy and finds herself in situations she never seen coming! Especially when it comes to Max and his dirty talking that will make you ‘melt’ every time he speaks! However, their two very different worlds collide with superstitions neither of them want to sway from! If you are looking for low angst, fun and flirty with a hot alpha and a sassy chick I highly recommend this awesome RomCom!
I loved this book, I’m a huge fan of Romcoms and right from the start this book had me smiling, loved the humor in this story, Max had Calliope going right from the start and her thoughts and actions toward Max was priceless, she definitely didn’t know what to think of this forward dirty mouth bossy alpha male-LOL, there is never a dull moment with this couple which made it so much fun to read and doing this review is taking me forever, I keep laughing to myself-that whole snowman thing just cracks me up.
This was a great story that will suck you in from the beginning with lots of lol moments and steamy scenes. Logan did not disappoint with Max and Calliope’s story.
