A sizzling sapphic enemies-to-lovers romance between two rival tennis superstars, taking place during the US Open!
Nothing fades faster than a former prodigy—and Inés Costa is dangerously close to disappearing.
Once queen of the court, Inés is limping through qualifiers. And after losing her biggest sponsor to Chloe Murphy, the sport’s fiery new favorite, she and her bank account are running on fumes.
Chloe, known as much for her talent as her temper, is a top seed for the upcoming US Open. But thanks to broken rackets, code violations, and the inability to play well with others, her “favorite” status is slipping away.
However, when they are forced to share the same side of the court, and the world surprisingly doesn’t implode, Chloe makes an she’ll fund Inés’s journey to the US Open, but only if Inés agrees to be her hitting partner and teach her to keep a level head.
It’s strictly business, but somewhere between practice drills and tour stops, the line between rival and something more begins to blur.
As the summer burns toward Flushing Meadows, their sizzling tension catches fire. With a trophy in sight and emotions running high, will their romance double fault at set point?
The Game, Set and Match series gets its first f/f in this third book, bringing a heated rivalry to the tennis court. This one’s chock full of favorite tropes and is decidedly steamy, the perfect pick to tide you over until nonfictional players hit the US Open in a few months.

Interesting.
‘Cause here’s the ‘thing’
My last fantasy trilogy like most contained more than one plot. One was a romance between two of the major women protagonists, I didn’t ask for it to go that way, but Muses and characters insisted. Terrified that I an elderly guy writing such, I started to listen to a few selective LGTB+ ‘lesfic’ audiobooks, written and narrated by women, and found the best entertaining and captivating (no not ‘those bits’) reads – romcoms particularly.
And now I find two than might well be buys – especially as they are both ‘sales’ on Audible Books.
Thanks Ali

Hi Ali. That is a great service you provide. With books that have even slight mentions of LGBTQ+ or correct black history being banned from schools and libraries all over the country many young people may not know of these books. Older people also may be embarrassed to ask a librarian where such material is. It is important for people to have access to both important fact based information on the LGBTQ+ but also see themselves represented in media. It affirms them as part of society. Hugs
