Ivory Crenshaw is Hollywood’s Sweetheart. After years of playing by the rules, she is finally getting her shot at writing and directing. Unfortunately, a pandemic outbreak leaves Ivory’s project on the cutting room floor. Her friend convinces Ivory to take a short vacation to Belize to reset and figure out what is next. Only, the borders close and Ivory is now stranded in Belize with no indication of when she will be able to return home.

Thankfully, she is not alone.

Preston Fields is a veteran second baseman in the majors. When the pandemic cancels Spring Training and postpones the start of the 2020 season, Preston jets off to Belize for a few days to feed his adventure bone. He doesn’t expect to get stranded in a foreign country putting his career in jeopardy, especially not with his Coach’s daughter and Hollywood’s Sweetheart.

These two unlikely companions decide to brave the chaos together beginning a whirlwind adventure across the islands and jungles of Belize. Adventure isn’t the only thing that finds them as they embark on a journey of self discovery, evaluation of what is truly important, and ultimately love.

Will Ivory and Preston be left Stranded on Second or will they make it home and score their happily ever after?

Forced Proximity

Stranded in Paradise
A sizzling slow burn that I ate up! I fell in love with Ivory and Preston so quick. Both of their lives were impacted by the pandemic in early 2020, Ivory as an aspiring writer and director in Hollywood, and Preston’s baseball team’s spring training. They each end up in Belize for a quick getaway, not knowing they will be there for months.These two had the best chemistry and banter. I loved their journey and love story. Preston was so attentive, caring, and just an all around sweetheart. He always wanted to make sure Ivory was okay with things, but he definitely had a dominant side in bed. Ivory was pretty down to earth for being a Hollywood actress, and was a dreamer. I loved watching her grow into herself and figure out what she wanted.This book was excellently written. I enjoyed every moment, and it put me right back in 2020 and all the uncertainty everyone felt and not knowing what was coming. I was so excited for Ivory and Preston getting their happy ending and can’t wait for more from this series.

This was such a sweet, low angst story.

Preston Fields is an utter dream and I could not have loved him more. He’s sweet, kind, patient, uplifting, and holy goodness that mouth… 🥵

Ivory Crenshaw is at a crossroads in her career when she meets Preston and the way their derailed plans help her break free is exquisite.

The lens through which the pandemic is viewed is wonderful. The story’s core centers around the need to slow down and reevaluate yourself and your life. Ivory and Preston both have been going at an 11 out of 10 pre-pandemic and really benefited from the forced moment to stop and breathe. Add in the beautiful backdrop of Belize, adventures and misadventures abound and this was a fantastic, slow burn, easy read.

Tiffany has gifted us a great series opener with her debut.

Stranded On Second - T Leigh Turner

My Review:
My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶🌶🌶
Pages: 409
Genre: Romance
Tropes: Sports Romance, Baseball Romance, Forced Proximity. Slow burn, Celebrity romance, Coach’s daughter

Ivory, celebrity actress, coaches daughter unhappy because her studio cancelled her debut movie she had written and was going to be a director of for the first time. Is talked into going to Belize and relaxing for a week to de-stress.

Preston, Second baseman for a professional baseball team is stressed over their season being pushed back a couple weeks because of the pandemic. He missed his usual off season vacation trips because of his father’s health. His best friend talks him into going to Belize for a week to de-stress.

They find themselves staying at the same world class resort in Belize. They both instantly recognize each other but don’t let the other know they do. Then the world comes to a halt. Flights are cancelled. Resorts and hotels are closing. They can’t fly home and have to get creative to find places to stay. They decide under the circumstances they should stay together.

Preston teaches her to snorkel, paddle boat, run and with each thing she regains her confidence in herself and clears her mind of her Hollywood persona and gets back to being Ivory.

Preston falls first and is so very patient with Ivory but who could resist a gorgeous professional athlete who puts your feeling first and shows you how to live again.

They finally are next level and committed to each other. They are stranded in Belize for three months until flights are finally reopened. Ivory has to travel back to Hollywood and Preston has to travel to Tampa where his team is based. He also has to face her dad’s wrath over his being out of the country AND being with his daughter.

Can their new relationship survive long distance, an irate grumpy coach and girlfriend’s father and all the interference the world can throw at them? Read the book to find out. I highly recommend this book! Go fall in love with Preston! He will be your next book boyfriend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hard to believe this is a debut novel!
Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2024

This debut novel from T. Leigh Turner was an out of the park homerun! I’ve had the pleasure of reading a lot of debut authors in real time and have never been so impressed. It’s very evident that Turner put the time and research in to make this story accurate and cohesive to the goings on of the early days of the pandemic. I liked that the pandemic was factual and present in the story but it wasn’t the whole story.

All of my favorite tropes were present in Stranded on Second. We start with forced proximity, forbidden romance, slow burn and he fall’s first followed quickly by my favorite of all time, found family. Our FMC and MMC may carry the story on their own but Gabby, Taylor and Miller give this book so much heart.

If this is what we get from her in a debut I can’t wait to see what’s next for us with the Nashville city troubadours series.

This was a 4.5 star read for me with a solid 4 🌶️ 🌶️🌶️🌶️ on the spicy factor!

What happens when Ivory Crenshaw is on vacation and a global pandemic cancels flights and borders are closed? She is at the same resort as one of the one star baseball players your dad coaches, Preston Fields, you two decide to stick together during these unprecedented times. This is the perfect opportunity for Ivory to plan and work on her next project, hopefully it will be the next step in the direction she wants to go. She also finds herself trying new things thanks to Preston. One of those things? Falling in love!

OMG! I think about Preston Fields way too often for being a fictional character but I guess that just makes him the perfect book boyfriend! When he falls first is my absolute favorite and Tiffany delivered perfectly. This book was a slow burn in the best way! The forced proximity and tension and buildup between Preston and Ivory is hot but damn when the spice hits! 🥵😮‍💨🫠 Preston and Ivory’s friends were hilarious, especially Miller! This has easily been one of my top reads of the year so far!

While reading SOS it was so easy to forget this is a debut novel! The characters and story created were beautiful and the story just flows off the pages and comes to life.
