Book three in a new baseball romance series, The Dugout, from USA Today Bestselling Author Piper Rayne.
I’m the coach’s daughter. Falling for one of my father's players was never the plan.
Especially not Decker Davis.
Chicago Colts third baseman.
Dependable. Steady. The guy everyone trusts.
And the man who’s spent years keeping his distance—especially from me.
We have history. The kind that ten years and a thousand miles can’t touch.
So, this time, I promised myself I'd be smarter.
No getting attached. No blurred lines. And definitely, no falling.
He broke every last one within the first week.
Because Decker doesn’t just show up for me. He shows up for my daughter.
Because he fits into our lives like he was always meant to be there.
Because he looks at me like I was never something he wanted to lose.
And suddenly, the walls I've spent years building don't feel nearly as solid as they used to.
But if I let him in, I’m not just risking my heart—I’m risking hers too… and I already know what losing him costs.
I won’t let my daughter pay that price.

Really good book
I absolutely loved it. This audiobook? Full cast? Duet narration? It was easily the best seven hours of my day. I fell in love with Decker since last book and completely got hooked on the way his character was built. Decker is a baseball player with some interesting rules, he makes them as needed, but mostly I loved how he slowly breaks some of them for Penelope ❤️ just perfect and honestly fits the title so well, he is the Rulebreaker. Penelope, is amazing—especially as a single mom. And Hazel, her daughter, is honestly one of the cutest parts of the entire story and completely steals every scene she’s in. I loved their journey together as friends, acquaintances, friends again and lovers. I also really enjoyed the sense of family and friendship throughout the book, with the teammates. One of my favorite things about this series is how the authors blend romance, humor, chemistry, and little twists that keep you completely invested until the very end. And that ending… wow. I really didn’t see that coming, and it was so well done. Excellent performance by the narrators, always is a pleasure listening to Teddy and Willa (the whole gang too). I truly loved this book and the entire series. I’ve enjoyed every audiobook so much, and I’m already looking forward to the next one because I’m not ready to leave this world yet. That epilogue!!!! I cannot wait for Easton’s story!!!
The Rulebreaker takes the heart into it's confidence and refuses to let go. From laugh out loud to tempting love story, Decker and Penelope bring the fire. Rayne turns spicy romance into sweet heartache. Sparks fly, hearts break and unpredictable becomes irresistible.
I received an ARC for this book. I absolutely adored this book! I loved the best friends to lovers in this book. Decker is such a sweetheart! He is always making sure everyone else is taken care of and sacrificing his happiness. I'm so happy to see him get his HEA! I loved to see the background of Foster and Decker's life and what happened. It was always such a mystery. I loved that they mended their fences and are back stronger!
Penelope is such a sweet person! Such a good mom. She knew who she wanted, and just had to wait for him. I really loved Hazel. She was so cute and when she asked Decker to be her dad, I just melted!
Another great book and the lead in to Easton's book was amazing! I can't wait for his and hopefully a little bit of some Lake Starlight!
Teddy Hamilton and Will James did an amazing job narrating this book! They were the perfect voices for Decker and Penelope. They were engaging and kept me entertained the whole book! Amazing job!

Decker and Penelope
📚I’ve been waiting for Decker and Penelope’s story and it was more than I could have hoped for. The dual timelines and chapters with the therapist both contribute great storytelling. These two have such a complicated history on several levels and experiencing the revelations as they unfold had me glued to the story. There is something incredibly satisfying with these Piper Rayne series that have me connecting so much with their characters. I love that we get to spend so much page time with everyone and it’s really genius because I’m already anticipating feeling sad when this series is over. In the meantime, I cannot wait for Easton’s story!!
🎧 This series, on audio, is a must!! The full cast brings this to the next level. Each narrator really embodies their perspective characters and brings so much personality to their performance. It’s such a fun listen I didn’t want to turn it off for anything. The fact each narrator is playing the same character through the course of the series really helps for those that like to binge a whole series.
