That is, until she meets fellow pro Oliver Anderson. He knows the highs and lows of professional tennis all too well, and they have an instant connection.
Oliver convinces Dylan she still has one last title fight left in her, with him as her coach.
But as they work on Dylan’s game, sparks start to fly between them.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Jones's winning second Game, Set, and Match romance (after Clean Point) finds tennis pro Dylan Bailey ready to retire after a string of devastating losses. To dissuade her from this notion, her friend and fellow tennis player Oliver Anderson hops aboard her 12-hour flight to Australia, intent on convincing her to let him be her coach. She agrees and the pair set about training for the Australian Open. Living and working in close quarters comes with complications, especially when their mutual attraction becomes too much to ignore and they agree to spend one steamy night together. But will just one night be enough? There are emotional conflicts, too, as Oliver frets that Dylan might injure herself on the court and Dylan worries about what will happen to their relationship when the tournament is over. Jones crafts a stark portrait of the cutthroat professional tennis circuit, highlighting the mental focus required by the sport and the pressures of media scrutiny on professional athletes. Add in plenty of sexual tension, and this is sure to delight sports romance fans.
