About Caught Up by Liz Tomforde (Windy City Series, Book 3 of 5) – A Baseball Romance About Love, Family and Finding Home

Caught Up by Liz Tomforde takes readers back to Chicago for a sports romance filled with family, pressure, attraction, fun, and the fear of wanting something that may not last. This is the third book in the Windy City Series. It follows Kai Rhodes, a single dad and starting pitcher for Chicago’s MLB team, and Miller Montgomery, the daughter of his coach. 

Kai is busy with baseball and raising his young son. He is tired, careful, and used to doing everything himself. He does not want help. After several nannies fail to stay, his coach brings in the one nanny Kai cannot easily fire: Miller.

Miller is a high-end pastry chef who has reached a major point in her career, but pressure has left her unable to create the fresh dessert ideas she needs. She has two months to reset. Instead of staying in the kitchen, she agrees to spend the summer in Chicago caring for Kai’s son.

Neither expects a temporary summer plan to start feeling like home.

When work, pressure, and love pull at the same time

Kai believes he has to carry every duty alone. Being a professional athlete and a father leaves little room for rest or change. Miller has built a life around movement and freedom, but career pressure has made her question the work she once loved.

Their summer arrangement gives both of them something they did not know they needed. Kai gets help and begins to remember that life can include joy outside his strict routine. Miller gets space away from the kitchen and starts to think about success, family, and home in a new way.

The romance grows through daily life. Time with Kai’s son, family moments, playful talks, attraction, and shared problems make their temporary situation harder to leave. The question becomes simple: what happens when a short summer begins to feel like a future?

Meet Kai Rhodes and Miller Montgomery

Kai is a baseball player, but he is a father first. His love for his son shapes his choices, even when those choices make his own life harder. His connection with Miller therefore means more than simple attraction.

Miller brings a very different energy. She is freer, bold, and used to moving on. She enters Kai’s careful world and adds laughter and change. At the same time, Kai and his son give Miller something she is not used to accepting: a place where she may want to stay.

Kai must learn that accepting help does not make him weak. Miller must decide whether leaving is still what she truly wants. That emotional push and pull gives the romance its heart.

Why this romance is so easy to get caught up in

The book brings together popular romance themes: a single dad, professional baseball, a nanny, close daily contact, family moments, strong attraction, and a relationship with an end date hanging over it.

The sports setting adds pressure because Kai’s job continues while his personal life changes. Miller’s pastry career gives her a goal outside the romance, so both main characters have something important to protect and rethink.

There is also a found-family feeling around the Windy City world. Readers who know the earlier books can enjoy familiar connections, while Kai and Miller still have their own central love story.

This is an adult romance. Liz Tomforde’s official content information lists explicit sex scenes, plus off-page mentions of the death of a parent and parental abandonment.
