Christy's 5 star review!
Anything but Minor is one of those books that has it all. It’s laugh out loud funny, sweet, swoony and steamy. Nothing is better than finishing a book and thinking ‘I loved everything about this,’ and that’s exactly what I thought after I finished this book. AbM is a sports romance, a romantic comedy, and it has one of my favorite tropes- where the ‘nerdy’ girl gets the cool guy.
Alice has left Ohio for a new adventure in beautiful Charleston, South Carolina. She is a pilot/flight instructor at a new place in Charleston. Alice truly is up for an adventure and wants to explore her new city. Which is how she meets minor league baseball player, Rafe Hembrey.
Alice finds herself at a local baseball game sitting next to a woman named Dutch when she first sees Rafe play. She is enamored with him at first sight, and he notices her, too. Later when she goes for drinks at a local bar, Rafe is there. I would love to say these two hit it off from the start, but that wouldn’t be 100% truthful.
Rafe ‘Bullet’ Hembery is a local sports star. He had his chance to go to the majors when he was younger, but he couldn’t take it. This is his year. This is the year everyone knows it will happen for him. This is not the year he needs to start a relationship. Rafe knows he needs to focus on his game, but how can he possibly do that with Alice around? Not only is she beautiful, but she’s smart, quirky and fun.
Watching things progress between these two was so much fun. I loved the beginning moments where they’re just starting to get to know each other. I loved seeing their relationship grow into so much more than just fun and flirty friendship. I loved it all.
Rafe and Alice’s love story was magical- and comical. I can’t count how many times I laughed during this story. It was so much more than just a funny book, though. I fell in love with these characters. And it wasn’t just the main characters. There were a plethora of side characters that were so fantastic and added so much to the story. Andy, Dutch, Kristina, Alice’s mom.
Rafe Hembrey is a wonderful hero, but I can’t help but share my love for all things Alice. To me, she stole the show. Alice is a hoot. Her crazy antics made me laugh non-stop. I loved her addiction to google, 80’s movies and her nervous tendencies. She really went out of her comfort zone to try something new and I admired that about her. I truly loved her outlook on life and how she was determined to make every day her best day. Alice really is the best!
With Anything but Minor, Kate Stewart proved that she really can write anything. Emotional stories, angsty books, erotica, and now- sports romance/comedy. I love all her books, but AbM is by far one of my favorites of hers. If you’re looking for a story to fall in love with that has the best heroine ever, a wonderful hero, and lots of laughs and love- this is one I highly recommend!
