"Save My Soul" is a quick trip around the bases touching on an opposites-attract romance, an athlete with a personal challenge, a mother-daughter relationship that provides much of the book's humor and a happy ending at home plate.Maggie Collins is a PHD psychologist who's consulted by baseball super agent Jordan Kemmons. His star pitcher has fallen into the slump from hell and needs help. Maggie, who has been living with her hippy-dippy mother Crystal, is almost relieved to have an excuse to go to North Carolina to see what she can do although she has her doubts about Jordan's confidence in her. The banter between Jordan and Maggie is fun to read and even more interesting to follow as their attraction grows.There are a few twists and turns in the plot but in the end, author Arden does a good job of bringing her characters along in a believable way to the reader's--and the characters'--satisfaction. Fun read.
