Her Personal Best

See available purchase options

Kiera Voss needs one personal best to save her career. Naomi Serrat has one rule: never fall for an athlete. Unfortunately, the woman who can lift more than anyone expected is the only one strong enough to make Naomi lose control.

Kiera Voss should be entering the prime of her weightlifting career. Instead, she’s one failed comeback away from being remembered as the strong, loud, plus-size athlete who almost made it — before a shoulder injury, a viral lift, and one very public meltdown turned her into a cautionary tale.

Naomi Serrat is the forty-one-year-old former world champion known for winning medals, breaking records, and emotionally freezing out every athlete she’s ever coached. She doesn’t want Kiera. Kiera is too undisciplined, too stubborn, too determined to hear every correction as criticism.

But training camp forces them into constant contact: dawn lifts, shared travel, massage tables, ice baths, hotel rooms, and a plan to rebuild Kiera’s body without breaking her mind. When federation politics threaten Kiera’s place at Olympic trials and Naomi’s past becomes public, both women must choose between the safe, silent path and the honest one.

Kiera wants a medal. Naomi wants control. Neither expects to want each other this badly.
