Review: Game Point by Meg Jones (Game, Set, and Match #2)


Blurb from Goodreads:
When Aussie Dylan Bailey walks away from her tenth grand slam without a title, she decides to call in for early retirement. But after spending time with fellow pro and British player Oliver Anderson, he convinces her she still has one last title fight left in her. 
Together, they embark on a journey of rediscovery and second chances, as Dylan and Oliver navigate the highs and lows of professional tennis while falling deeper in love with each passing match.
  

This had definite Wimbledon vibes in the best way!  It was just a bit long in certain parts and perhaps a smidge more tennis than necessary?  I know that sounds crazy but some of the swoony scenes were shorter than the tennis matches!  Still, definite chemistry, good friends to lovers and great sports romance!  I am going to read the first book in the series (it's on KU!) next so you can definitely read them as standalones but I can't wait for more!

Game Point comes out next week on September 9, 2025, and you can purchase HERE.  

A lifetime of giving up everything for this sport had led to this. Arthur Ashe Stadium, US Open final. One set already hers, a single game point separating me from another failure. 
I was a nervous wreck on the baseline, one hand gripping the handle of my racket, the fingertips of the other pressing into the green material of the ball, gripping so hard I felt like I might never let go.

I love this trope, sub-genre, setting: My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend

I Love This Trope, Sub-Genre, Setting is a new feature on my blog in which I discuss a trope, sub-genre or setting that I love and tell you about books that are shining examples of said trope, sub-genre or setting.  Feel free to play along and please let me know about your favorite books in this realm and whether you like this trope, sub-genre and/or setting as much as I do! Today I am spotlighting the trope of:  My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend , which I would define as any book where the heroine either has a crush on or falls for her brother's best friend or her best friend's brother. I have to confess that I love this trope in nearly all of its iterations!  I have a younger brother so I never got to crush on any of his friends but it's fun reading about that and it's equally as fun as reading about falling for your best friend's brother -- instant sisters!  I know there are a ton...
