Product Description
by Tom Vellner (Author)
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.
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--considering 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 longtime 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 escape him. 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. Ready? Play. Thirty Love is a must-read for fans of queer sports romances like Heated Rivalry.Author Biography
