THIRTY LOVE

OUT NOW

NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2026 BY APPLE BOOKS AND SPOTIFY

In this queer, rivals-to-lovers rom-com, a closeted American tennis star determined to win the US Open by age 30 battles a frustratingly handsome challenger both on and off the court.

β€œThe cast is charming, the sex is buoyant and the tennis β€” whew, the tennis writing is kinetic and explosive.”

β€”The New York Times
