Things heat up on and off the court for two tennis rivals in this steamy debut gay sports rom-com, perfect for fans of TJ Alexander and Rachel Reid - a must-read for fans of Heated Rivalry.

American tennis star Leo Chambers is determined to win the US Open by thirty, the age when many players feel retirement looming. He's just a year away from that dreaded birthday, but he can't find his focus - he hasn't told anyone he's gay; he's clashing with his strict coach (who also happens to be his dad); and he still can't figure out how to beat his long-time nemesis on tour, Gabe Montoya, who, well, hits different. Gabe is playing better than ever, and Leo can't seem to escape him - and maybe he doesn't want to...

Leo's other obstacle is Sascha Volkov, a Russian legend who has such a powerful influence on the tennis world, he would destroy Leo's career if he found out that he's gay.

No distractions, Leo reminds himself. But when Gabe makes a shocking announcement, Leo is thrown off his game - in more ways than one.
