Rival Rackets

Free with Kindle Unlimited

Two women fighting for the same sponsorship deal. Their public smiles are fake. Their private chemistry is so volatile it starts changing the outcome of their matches.

Vivienne Cross is the Ice Queen of women’s tennis — a two-time Grand Slam champion whose composure is legendary and whose personal life is a fortress. She doesn’t smile for cameras. She doesn’t let anyone close. And she absolutely does not think about Talia Reyes’s forehand at two in the morning.

Talia Reyes is the rising challenger — explosive, magnetic, and the only player on tour who makes Vivienne nervous. She plays to the crowd, smiles for the sponsors, and performs confidence like a second language. Underneath the bravado, she’s never had someone want her for anything other than what she produces.

When luxury sportswear brand Elara signs them both for a six-week “Rivals” campaign — joint photoshoots, joint press, joint everything — they’re forced into each other’s space across three tournament stops. One kiss after a late-night argument becomes two. Two becomes a hotel room door opening at midnight. The sex is competitive, addictive, and absolutely against the rules.

The problem isn’t that they can’t stop. The problem is that winning against each other starts feeling worse than losing.
