About this ebook

Dive into this sexy, enemies to lovers, new adult sports romance!

Money, power, prestige...failure. 

Don't call it a comeback....because no one else is. I spent my whole life preparing for the pro tennis circuit, but it only took one false move to lose it all.

I was poised to live up to the Coulter family sports legacy. 

Now, with the pressure on and my future in jeopardy, the last thing I need is a smart-mouthed training partner who isn’t the least bit impressed by my last name or my money.

Tami thinks I’m rich, spoiled and moneyed. She’s got an attitude that’s only rivaled by her killer swing. She’s also got a past that makes me want to fix everything for her. If only she’d let me. I’ve got a plan for us both to win…

But only if I can convince her that with me, love isn’t a losing score.

Ratings and reviews

This is story of Bryce a professional tennis player who has an career ending injury and feels the pressure from his sports dynasty family to get better and back in the game. While he feels like he can't take it anymore and depression looming he by chance meets Tammi a retail sports store worker with a history with tennis. The chance meeting would be gold to others but Tammi feels the opposite. It takes her a while to warm up to Bryce, although the attraction is immediate, because she doesn't trust easy and wants to earn her spot in life not have it handed to her. This is a great story I love the build up but I only gave it 4 stories because the ending seemed a bit rushed. However I feel it will be redeemed it the next book in the series. This felt a lot like it was a long introductory to the other characters' books to follow. Great job. I look forward to reading more.

Sports can give you great pleasure when you enjoy playing and you are successful or great anguish when you can't play the sport you deeply love. This love for the game brings Bryce and Tami together in a passionate, sexy, and romantic story about how this passion can transform you in more ways that you ever imagine. Bryce seems to have it all, but there is more behind the golden boy of tennis, specially after a devastating injury. Tami has nothing, but her love for the game she had to leave behind. They come from very different worlds, but their love for the game and the passion that increases between them is exactly what both need to overcome the tragedies of their past and move towards a successful and bright future together. This journey is not without obstacles and even though their journey is a bit bumpy and more fearsome that it has to be, together they can accomplish anything in and out of the court.

Opposites attract. Tami is surviving, she's loves tennis but missed her opportunity to be able play professionally years ago. Bryce is building his tennis career when he gets hurt playing the game he loves, now he doesn't know if he will play again. He doesn't have to play because he is rich, his whole snobbish family is rich. Bryce is drawn to the strength & determination he sees in Tami and this game....of love he won't be giving up on. These two complement one another, Tami is wary, of rich guys, very independent and a tad stubborn but they are well matched. A little rivalry, a few secrets and some good ole payback all thrown in to make this a very entertaining sports romance which I very much enjoyed reading.

About the author

USA Today Best Seller, Nana Malone's love of all things romance and adventure started with a tattered romantic suspense she "borrowed" from her cousin. 

It was a sultry summer afternoon in Ghana, and Nana was a precocious thirteen. She's been in love with kick butt heroines ever since. With her overactive imagination, and channeling her inner Buffy, it was only a matter a time before she started creating her own characters.

While she waits for her chance at a job as a ninja assassin, in the meantime Nana works out her drama, passion and sass with fictional characters every bit as sassy and kick butt as she thinks she is.
