Laying it all on the line for love…
Mia Cresswell is tired of being good.
Achieving geek status at college doesn’t equate with fun. So when she heads home to her dad’s tennis academy in Santa Monica on spring break, she’s determined to be bad. And hot Aussie tennis star Kye Sheldon is just the guy to help her do it.
However, Kye’s troubled past continues to dog him and attending the Cresswell Tennis Academy is his last chance at the big time. He can’t afford to screw up…by screwing the boss’s daughter.
But Mia and Kye’s relationship is much more than a vacation fling.
Will it be game, set, match, when the truth is revealed?
Or will Mia and Kye have a real shot at love all?

"Hey."
I turned toward the
girl's voice as she stepped out of the shadows, not sure what annoyed me most.
The intrusion or the way she sauntered toward me, all long legs and cocky
smile.
She was just my type:
tall, sexy brunette with enough hip sway to make a guy wonder what made her so
confident, and bedroom eyes that hinted at sin.
Sadly, this devil had
just landed in the City of Angels and sin was the last thing on my agenda.
"I'm not in the
mood for company," I said, expecting her to head back inside.
She didn't falter as
she strode toward me. "Too bad, because I needed some air and this terrace
is big enough for the both of us."
I could've left but
there was something in the way she was staring at me that had me intrigued:
like she wanted me but wouldn't have a clue what to do if she got me.
"Mia." She
stuck out her hand. "Pleased to meet you."
"Kye." I
reluctantly shook her hand. "Wish I could say the same."
"You don't like
girls?" She slid her hand out of mine, the insolent quirk of her lips
making me want to do something I shouldn't. Like kiss the smirk off her smart
mouth.
"Love
women." I took a step back, staring at her feet and slowly sweeping upward
in a deliberate perusal meant to make a point. I wanted to make her squirm. It
backfired, as I noted red nail polish matching her towering shoes, slim ankles,
long legs, tight black dress that ended mid-thigh and hugged her lean bod, and
pert tits. The frigging dress had a front zipper that just begged to be undone.
Beyond hot.
By the time I reached
her face, she was blushing.
"So which am
I?" She leaned forward, giving me a generous glimpse of cleavage.
"Girl or woman?"
