Sudden Death Serve: A College Sapphic Tennis Romance

Lena Vogel was recruited to win-quietly, flawlessly, and without ever letting anyone see her sweat. Old money. International rank. Ice-cold precision. The kind of tennis star donors love because she never gives them a reason to worry. Jayla Brooks was recruited to survive. Partial scholarship. Café shifts between practice. A serve like thunder and a mouth that runs even faster. The kind of player people call "too much" right up until she saves the match. Then the team's top doubles pair implodes days before the season opener, and Coach makes the only move that might keep their championship hopes alive: Put the ice queen and the chaos girl on the same side of the net. On court, their chemistry is lethal-Jayla's power cracking the point open, Lena's ruthless poach slamming it shut. Off court, they clash over everything: privilege, pressure, and the unspoken rules that decide who gets to be messy and who gets punished for it. When a donor weekend forces Lena to fake-date Jayla to shut down her family's matchmaking...their "performance" starts feeling dangerously real. A couple-y photo shoot goes off the rails. Rumors spark. One brutal loss leaves them alone in a locker room with nowhere left to hide from what they want. And when Lena-always controlled, always untouchable-finally reaches first? Jayla learns that being chosen isn't the same as being convenient. Because their serves are deadly. Their rallies are ruthless. And their fake relationship might be the only thing more dangerous than the tiebreak.
