Description
A sweet and spicy friends-to-lovers romance set against the backdrop of the Australian Open, from the author of Clean Point.
In the aftermath of Dylan Bailey’s tenth Grand Slam loss, she decides to put her racket away for good. Until a tempting bet from fellow pro Oliver Anderson convinces her to give it one last shot.
If she sticks it out, and still loses the next tournament, she takes home his US Open Trophy, and is free to walk away from the sport forever. To sweeten the deal, Oliver proposes a twist—he’ll swap his racket for a whistle and coach Dylan in the months leading up to the Australian Open.
After all, with the solid friendship they’ve built, surely working together could score a game point.
They just need to keep their eyes on the ball and ignore their sizzling tension.
As Oliver and Dylan navigate the unpredictable court, they rediscover their love for the sport, but the feelings they share could complicate things. With the world watching their every move, they must ensure their partnership stays on-court.
But as the lines between coach and player blur, especially in a sport where every detail is scrutinized, keeping their feelings in check may be their toughest match yet.

Love-love! That’s my opinion on this one. After reading her first in the series, I didn’t think Ms. Jones could top it. Well, she did with “Game Point.” If you’re a fan of witty banter, enjoyable characters, feisty heroines and sizzling chemistry, this one is a sure bet for you! Since it doesn’t release until fall, spend the summer reading “Clean Point” & watching tennis. You’ll be all set for “Game Point” when it releases.

This book is an absolute page-turner! It delivers intensity, emotion, and authenticity. Dylan's journey is both thrilling and human and I found her so deeply relatable. The pacing is flawless, the dialogue sharp, and the romance is .both spicy and deeply emotional. Five stars without hesitation!

Book Two in the Game, Set, and Match tennis romance series wins at love! Dylan Bailey, Clean Point’s redeemed villainess, tosses her racquets aside after yet another major final loss. Talented and deeply competitive, she steamrolls her way through tournaments then struggles in the finals. Enough is enough.
Until she meets Oliver and the two strike up a friendship—and make a bet that pulls her right back into tennis. Oliver’s ready to retire from tennis and jumps into coaching Dylan, pushing these friends into close proximity and high-stress moments. And the chemistry is on fire, but will they blur the lines of coach and player with so much at stake?
LOVED Game Point. First, I’m a huge tennis fan and was a competitive tennis player years ago (sadly, not on the professional circuit), so all the tennis was right up my alley and brought me back to some crazy times. I loved how the author brought the characters and their personalities together. Dylan is such a fireball and competitor, a little (or a lot) stubborn and prickly, and carries a lot of love and tenderness for the people who matter to her. Loved her tenacity and her softer side as well. Oliver is just such a good guy and the perfect balance for Dylan. The thoughtfulness and maturity they both showed (most of the time) communicating and thinking of each was perfection.
The plot was fun too—not just about the romance but competitive sports, the physical and mental toll, the emotions, family dynamics, all of it made the book that much more compelling!
Overall, I adored this book and highly recommend.
Thank you to Avon and Harper Voyager for the advance copy. All thoughts and opinions are mine.
