Summary

The hilarious and poignant new novel from the author of It's Getting Hot in Here - about a woman who joins her local tennis club to try to combat her menopausal anxiety.

Description

It's never too late for a comeback

Single mum Jules lives next to a tennis club, but has no plans to play. Especially when her old school crush, handsome doctor Sam Delaney, returns from the USA thirty years after leaving and is now displaying a killer forehand in direct view of her bedroom window. Despite what she tells her personal trainer fiance, Jules finds exercise as tedious in her 40s as she did as a teenager.

But when she's hit by an unprecedented wave of anxiety - brought on by perimenopause and her 19-year-old daughter's solo trip around the world - she's in urgent need of a distraction and rashly agrees to join an amateur women's tennis team. They are desperate for players. The fact that she can't really play doesn't seem matter . . .

As rallies are hit and friendships are formed, Jules is astonished to find herself in the grip of a passionate, all-consuming relationship . . . and not only with the tennis. Problem is, will these sexy encounters she keeps stumbling into with Sam put her on course to a devastating double fault?
