Love the Belltown Six Pack!
Each book in this series just kept getting better and better. These authors are awesome. I love everything they write. This book is no exception. When Levi fell for Finley it was for good because he didn’t play around. When his Belltown Six Pack friends heard that he was finally getting a couch in his living room after four years of no furniture, they knew he must have been serious about Finley. This story was such a joy to read. Much romance, a little light hearted banter, some very touching moments kept me reading on. There was never a dull moment. Since this is the last book in this series, I have to figure out what to read next. I know for sure it will be a book by any one or all of these authors for I know I will enjoy any of them.
The Belltown Six Pack is an intriguing mix of male personalities, upbringings and life skills that need strong, independent women to make them whole. Couldn’t put the book down as I got emotionally invested in this well crafted story. Highly recommend.
I loved this clean sports romance series!
I love the whole series, so it’s no surprise that this meets standard (by far). I really appreciated the difference in the main characters. I’m imagining that many readers identify with their backgrounds or current emotional temperature. I love books that keep things real. Yes, there’s a side of the story that’s fun and star struck, but it doesn’t overshadow the emphasis of ‘real life’ and ‘real people’. The heroine is so very attractive in her own way, as is the hero. Very cool. The conclusion is very satisfying after such conflict throughout. I love the glimpse at different ways of life and the way it helps me be more open minded over people I meet.
The tough exteriors of both these athletes hide their vulnerabilities, but together they allow each other to explore their deeper feelings, not just of a romantic nature, but the issues they are struggling with. I appreciated how genuine Levi is with Finley, even with his charming lines- he is sincere about them. He’s not a player since he’s been so focused on his career and brother, which made me like him even more. He’s hesitant to move too fast for Finley, but the advice of his baseball brothers help him see that he shouldn’t play it too cool. I admired the determination of both of them to go after what they want. A satisfying conclusion to the Belltown Sixpack series! These books can be easily read in any order- don’t miss them!

Kissing on Third is the sixth installment from the Belltown Six Pack series. I have enjoyed this fun series and this one was a perfect addition to it. I give this delightful book five plus stars.
I received this book from the publisher, but was not required to write a review. This review is 100% my own honest opinion.
Levi Cox is the 6th of the Belltown Six Pack guys and he’s a good one to end with.
There’s a lot to like about this story. Levi and Finley are well matched. Both have a heartbreaking past with lots of baggage to overcome. Consequently, they each are instrumental in helping the other heal and release the pent up anger. I also liked the interaction with the other 5 guys.
The only thing that would improve this book would be the addition of an epilogue of some sort. I’d love to see each of the guys and their significant others again and a follow up of their stories.
Romance – PG / kissing
Language – PG
Violence – description of boxing match, baseball brawl, and pub fight.
My rating – 5 stars
Levi is the member of the Belltown Six Pack who is the hardest to get to know. He’s got walls up and has a past that’s hard to escape, but he’s not one to back away from a challenge. When he meets Finley, he has his work cut out for him because she’s ultra tough and seems to be immune to him.
I’ve been so impressed with this series! Each woman is unique and somehow captures the hearts of this rag-tag group of swoony baseball men. Finley is a boxer! How cool is that?! Yet, she has some softness to all her toughness and I loved watching her and Levi figure each other out. Even tough Finley needs a little protection and romance.
These characters were written in a way that really made them come alive. Although they’re very different from me, I was fascinated by their relationship and felt the heat of their connection licking out of the pages. I also love seeing the Belltown Six Pack interact with each other. Their camaraderie can’t be beat and I’m sad to see this series come to an end.
Content: mild violence; mild romance; mild language

I can’t even tell you how much I have been loving this series. It is so much fun! I’m a baseball girl so combine that with romance and it sure feels like a home run to me.
Levi is a little rough around the edges but his heart is gold. He works so hard at being the guy he wants to be while putting the past behind him. I loved his instant interest and attraction to Finley. He kept showing up and he definitely kept saying all the right things. He had me swooning with his honest and endearing words. I loved Levi.
Finley isn’t your typical girl and I liked that but her boxing matches had me cringing. I’m not a fan of boxing- male or female- so I kind of skimmed through the boxing match details. (Personal preference, don’t hate on me for it.) Finley is strong but so unsure about Levi and his intentions. Levi’s steady presence and persistence chips away at her doubts. I really loved how Finley took the time to understand Levi’s past and give him the benefit of the doubt. Levi and Finley are the perfect match.
Three authors combined to write this series. The main characters all appear lightly in all the books but each book focuses on a different person. You can read the books in any order. This series is at it’s close now which is sad, but happily these authors are writing another sports series revolving around hockey. I know next to nothing about hockey but I know it won’t matter because these authors will help me feel like I do!
This series is on Kindle Unlimited if you have that! Yay!
I loved this series and hate this the last of it.
I will not summarize this story because it is already given in the description of this book and I do not want to give more of the story away.
What I liked:
• The baseball and sports theme to the story.
• That Fin was a boxer trying to make her way as a newcomer in the boxing league.
• The personalities of Levi, Fin, and the supporting cast of characters were well developed and likeable.
• I liked the texting between Levi and Fin. There is also, a lot of texting between the other characters. The texting banter gives the reader a lot to smile about.
• The romance between Fin and Levi was believable.
• The pacing was good. Not too fast nor too slow.
• The descriptions of locations and emotions were well done and easy to visualize and to feel.
• The story was well written, edited, and flowed smoothly.
• This was a clean read.
If you want a read that will make you feel good all the way to the end, you will want to read this novella.
I was given an ARC of this book. My review was voluntary and my opinions were my own.
