Words I Write Crazy: Binding Arbitration: Review

From Goodreads:
Through the corridors of the Windy City's criminal courts, single mother Libby Tucker knows exactly how far she'll go to save her cancer-stricken son's life. The undefeated defense attorney is prepared to take her fight all the way to the majors.

Circumstances force Libby to plead her case at the cleats of celebrity baseball player Banford Aidan Palowski, the man who discarded her at their college graduation. Libby has worked her backside bare for everything she's attained, while Aidan has been indulged since he slid through the birth canal and landed in a pile of Gold Coast money. But helping Libby and living up to his biological duty could jeopardize the only thing the jock worships: his baseball career.

If baseball imitates life, Aidan admits his appears to be silver-plated peanuts, until an unexpected confrontation with the most spectacular prize that’s ever poured from a caramel corn box blindsides him. When he learns about his son's desperate need, it pricks open the wound he’s carried since he abandoned Libby and the child.

All Libby wants is a little anonymous DNA, but Aidan has a magical umpire in his head who knows Libby's a fateball right to the heart. When a six-year-old sage and a hippy priestess step onto the field, there’s more to settle between Libby and Aidan than heartache, redemption, and forgiveness.

My Review:
This was a really entertaining book! I enjoyed it so much, and though the baseball references were a bit annoying. Other then that, I really enjoyed reading about these characters, they were interesting, and entertaining, and I enjoyed all of that!

This book brought up a lot of a lot of emotions! A kid with cancer, that's pretty emotional. Then there was the relationship conflicts, because yeah, he is the father of their child, and he abandoned her, and yeah, all the things there!

What Aidan did, it wasn't the best choice. It was one of the worst, but not the worst, out a limited selection of choices. So he did the best he could. But that still meant that he had some apologies to make, he did have that chance for redemption!

Reading this journey that Libby and Aidan go on, for their son, and for each other, was just a really heart-warming story, one that was just really great to read! It was a difficult journey, but in the end, I think they'd agree that it was a necessary one!

I enjoyed this book a lot, it was really great to read, I enjoyed it so much!

Bio:
Windy city writer, Elizabeth Marx, brings cosmopolitan life alive in her fiction—a blend of romance, fast-paced Chicago living, and a sprinkle of magical realism. In her past incarnation she was an interior designer, not a decorator, a designer, which basically means she has a piece of paper to prove that she knows how to match things, measure things and miraculously make mundane pieces of furniture appear to be masterpieces. Elizabeth says being an interior designer is one part shrink, one part marriage counselor and one part artist, skills eerily similar to those employed in writing.

Elizabeth grew up in Illinois, but has also lived in Texas and Florida. If she's not pounding her head against the wall trying to get the words just right, you can find her at a softball field out in the boonies somewhere or sitting in the bleachers by a basketball court. Elizabeth resides with her husband, girls, and two cats who've spelled everyone into believing they're really dogs.

Elizabeth has travelled extensively, but still says there's no town like Chi Town.
