They say if you love someone, set them free, and if they come back, it’s meant to be.

I didn’t exactly set Vanessa free.

I screwed up. She left.

Five years later, she’s back wearing another man’s ring.

And this time I have no choice but to let her go.

But fate has other plans for us.

And once again, I find myself face-to-face with the love of my life.

I take that as a sign from the universe that we truly are meant to be.

She wants me to let her go.

Believe me, I tried.

Not once but twice.

It broke me.

It broke her.

It broke us.

I won’t make the same mistake again.

Because if you truly love someone, you don’t set them free.

You hold on to them with everything you’ve got.


Disclaimer: Baller is book 5 in the Heritage Bay Series. Can be read as a standalone but does contain spoilers of previous books. As with all the books in this series, this story is rich with characters. Not recommended for readers under the age of 18 due to graphic sex scenes, excessive bad language and adult situations.

I am a huge fan of Fosters and loved the rest of this series. I loved how it was in three parts and I loved how it focused on them with the others making mini appearances. Very clever , thought out and one of the best books I’ve read this year. I love that true love wins in the end and we get our happy ever after.
5 stars and highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars fighting for that 2nd chance
Reviewed in Australia on 21 August 2020
Baller is a standalone in the Heritage Bag series, having not read the previous books I was worried I would have missed something but I haven’t.

Liam knew what he wanted even if that meant breaking the rules; When he first saw her he knew he should walk away but as time went on he just couldn’t. Vanessa was having a bad night and when it turns into a fairy tale, she cannot help but swoon. When lies tear them apart it takes years before they can heal their broken hearts.

Timing was never their best suit but when everything aligns perfectly there was no stopping them.

I enjoyed reading Baller the dual POV is always a favourite of mine, Foster is a new to me author and I am looking forward to reading more in the future.

This is my first book by this author so I am a little late to the Heritage Bay party - and like some of the other reviewers I was worried about getting lost in the vast number of characters listed at the start of the book. Yes it would make more sense if I had read the previous four books, but I really thought that the author has done a beyond magnificent job of pretty much dumbing it down and not over complicating it that the story does end up definitely reading as a stand-alone.
Liam and Vanessa’s story would have to be one of the very best second chance at love romances I have read in quite some time. I liked how the author wrote the book in my opinion three stages. The first part was when they initially were together, the second when they were apart and then finally the third was when everything clicked back into place for them to be together again.
I thought it was extremely well written and knowing I am going to sound all cliche and that, but I was simply hooked and couldn’t turn the pages quick enough to find what was going to happen next. I have most certainly found myself a new author that I know I will read time and again.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book

Wow, what can I say! I absolutely loved Liam and Vanessa's story it showed Liam in a totally different light and explains a few things from previous books. I don't think I can get enough of the Heritage Bay series. Well told M.A. Foster!

When I got the ARC for Baller, by M. A. Foster, I wasn’t expecting to love it so much. Don’t get me wrong, the blurb sounded great and I was in for a great ride. But this is one of those books that is a pleasant surprise from beginning to end.

First of all, Liam… (sigh). This guy had me swooning over and over throughout. God, I love him! I’m convinced that a man like that in real life would have every single woman in the world wrapped around his little finger.
He’s not only a millionaire and a successful sportsman, he’s the epitome of a good guy mixed with a great lover, the best of friends, a loving son, brother and uncle. He’s faithful to his feelings and that’s exactly what gets him in trouble. He follows his heart no matter the consequences.

Vanessa is a tough and stubborn town girl who has learned from an early age that it is important to defend herself not only physically, but emotionally as well. She is a strong-minded woman, who is very keen to chase her happiness. Nevertheless, she might be quite mistaken when looking for it away from the only man she’s ever loved.

Since this is a book in a series – which can by all means be read as a standalone – , Foster mentions some amazing characters from previous books, and they add a great deal to the story. You simply can’t help wanting to be a part of their lives!

The Mackenzies, the Parkers, Vanessa’s friends... they all provide such an amusing environment that reading this book is nothing but all fun and enjoyment.

This is my first experience with M.A. Foster and I’m def gonna add more of hers to my TBR list.

If you’re into small town, second-chance romances, and sports, make sure to grab this one.

Awesome ride!

Five-star read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Swoonworthy with characters you will love!! Another Amazing book from MA Foster!!!

I'm a HUGE fan of this series and all the characters of Heritage Bay!! If you're a diehard fan like me, then you know who Liam is already and know a little about his relationship with Vanessa. If not, you'll be fine reading this without knowing all that. I would encourage you to read the other books though. Back to Liam and Vanessa... I'm a sucker for second chance, young love books and this one is one of my favorites!! In this book you get to see another side of Liam and I'm loving it!! He's usually this cocky guy who loves his family especially his niece Jay and never gets serious with a woman. In this one, you realize he has a heart and emotions. This is a great story full of love, tension and healing from past mistakes. Him and Vanessa are both stubborn and don't handle situations well. This is why they are apart right now... So many sweet moments, sexy moments, Liam showing his alpha side, awkward moments, moments that make you laugh/OMG, what just happened and of course grand gestures.. I have so many favorite parts and they are all different scenarios. It's hard to pick one. When you read this book, you will fall in love, want to smack their heads together and swoon hard core. This series keeps getting better and better and I can't wait for the next book!! Oh and how do I get to hang out with Vanessa, Katie, Gabbi and Kennedy? They seem like a great group of girls who love hard, protect to the end and love to have fun together. I want to hang out with them!! This book just flowed together beautifully and I loved every moment of it!!

I love the Heritage Bay series and Baller did not disappoint. This story has everything from catching up with other characters and meeting new ones. This book is full of love, anguish, tears, family and friends. I cried with the characters and laughed with them but the whole story tugs at your heart. I couldn't put it down. There are so more books I'm praying will come next!

The characters were great, as was the story line. I just wish it showed their development in the years between. Liam and Vanessa were both stubborn, but their was continually repetitive, "I left because..." "I didn't cheat..."
So while I enjoyed the book and the characters, there weren't enough details or exciting twists in it for me. Great writing though. I'll definitely read more of M.A. Fosters work.
