Distant Replay
Living Legends Book 4
by Declan Rhodes
The third time’s a charm. It has to be when you get a second try at a second chance.
Baseball brought Andy and Zane together for the first time eight years ago in San Antonio, Texas. Neither played the game, but instead, they cheered for the big league RoadRunners dancing on top of the dugout and shooting T-Shirts into the crowd. After two summers of dating and dancing ended in an ugly breakup, neither expected to see the other again.
Spurred on by the encouragement of a golden moment with a big league pitcher, Andy attended an open tryout, and, against all odds, he was signed to play big league baseball. While he struggled in his third season, the Charlotte Yellowjackets made a leap of faith signing him to plug a gap in their outfield.
Zane left San Antonio to pursue a career in sports journalism. After one of his local pieces went viral, Charlotte’s legendary sportswriter Medford Post invited him to the city as a protege. Although the odds were slim, Zane also saw it as an unexpected opportunity for a second chance.
With the backdrop of a Charlotte Yellowjackets run for the World Series, Andy and Zane try to heal their past scars while building a relationship for the future. It’s not smooth sailing, and they need the support of friends and professional colleagues to search for their happily ever after.
Distant Replay is a 55,000-word second-chance baseball romance. It is book 4 in the Living Legendsseries and includes characters from all of the earlier books, but it can be read as a standalone story. The book includes steamy scenes and a guaranteed happy ending.

Momma Says: 4 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐
I can always count on Declan Rhodes for terrific characters that I'm going to want to revisit. Distant Replay gives us that in spades by bringing in past couples in the series. This book can still be read as a standalone, but for those who have followed from the beginning, it's a special treat to see where those other great couples are now.
This fourth Living Legends book focuses on Zane and Andy with a second chance romance. With a bad breakup in their past, miscommunication is bound to happen, and we have an additional bit of angst concerning Zane's job. True to form, Rhodes tempers the angst perfectly with witty dialogue to add a bit of levity to the situation.
All in all, Andy and Zane's story is a great addition to the series. It's loaded with engaging characters, sharp dialogue, romance, a bit of steamy goodness, and of course, the great American pastime. On that, I have to give props to the author for including some actual game play in this sports romance.
