Summary
Sophie Baek was ranked seventh in the world when her knee blew out on a wet baseline in Melbourne. Two years later, she's grinding through a comeback under the meticulous coaching of her boyfriend, Benedict Bridgerton — retired Grand Slam champion, devoted partner, compulsive spreadsheet printer. Then Beatrice Turner qualifies for the grass-court season and gets on a plane to London, and Sophie's carefully managed life develops a third point of gravity. The problem is that Beatrice is the ex Sophie never got over. The bigger problem is that Benedict already knows this. The biggest problem is that the knee has never played better than it does when Beatrice is on the other side of the net.
A story about a comeback, a triangle, and the discovery that the person you've been competing for has been competing too. Everyone is keeping score. Nobody is winning.
