“Loud music vibrated through the walls, and imagining smashing their sound system wasn’t helping me get to sleep. Nor was thinking that wherever Miles Callahan was staying, he wouldn’t be kept up by loud music. God, the man was infuriating. Come fuck me eyes? More like come punch me face. He could talk the humble tennis talk as well as anyone, but unlike most, it failed to fully paper over the insufferable size of his ego.”
An irresistibly sweet and seductive MM sports romance, serving up hot competition, steamy banter and a spicy rivals-to-lovers story
Australian Matteo Russo is the first and only openly gay tennis pro. He was once a brilliant junior with a bright future, until a freak accident derailed his career. Now, Mat’s fed up, struggling to qualify for tournaments and not sure he can afford dinner tonight.
After losing to the rich, arrogant American superstar Miles Callahan, Mat throws down a challenge for his old rival: travel to Wimbledon on a tight budget and prove he’s earned his success. No support team, no coach, no fancy hotel.
He doesn’t expect Miles to accept. But now the American needs a hitting partner, and someone to explain laundromats, and what began as a dare suddenly becomes a searing and secretive off-court fling.
Mat should be focusing on his career, not falling for a glamorous star, yet Miles believes in his game in a way Mat hasn’t since his accident. And he’s soon playing better than ever.
But as a rematch looms, it becomes clear why love and tennis just don’t mix.
Someone always has to lose . . .

Book #2 of the Love Game series
Alexis Desrosiers is tennis’s bad boy. He smashes racquets, plays up for the crowd, and argues with umpires. Players hate playing him and journalists call him a spoiled brat, but Alexis doesn’t care. Tennis isn’t his dream. It’s just the family business. And it’s getting boring.
When a new umpire joins the tour, he isn’t what Alexis expects. Theodore Delaney is quiet and shy and desperately cute—but he also has a voice of steel, and is soon officiating all Alexis’s matches. Determined to make him snap, Alexis flirts aggressively—only to end up tied to a bed, doing everything he’s told and hating how much he loves it.
One assignation becomes another. And another. Alexis’s love of tennis has been invigorated and he’s playing better than ever, even though getting caught together would be a career-ending disgrace for a player and his umpire. Not to mention dragging both of their famous families into an unholy mess.
But Alexis’s feelings for Theo are fast getting out of hand, and what started out as a thrilling game of chicken soon becomes something Alexis may have to lose everything to protect.
