Description

They're playing for keeps

Brooke Murphy has hit a creative block after a messy breakup, and shes on the hunt for something or someone to provide steamy inspiration for her trope-tastic romance novels.

So when a pickleball match promises fresh inspiration in the form of Manhattans most competitive finance bros, its game on. She just needs to learn how to play and fast.

Enter coach Owen Miller, AKA The Big Gripper. Grumpy and totally offbeat in his bucket hat and flip-flops, he agrees to teach Brooke how to play to impress.

But soon, the only thing theyre playing for is each other
