“Taylor Jenkins Reid’s latest is set in the world of the tennis elite, following a ruthless former champion who—after losing her record to a rising star—decides to come out of retirement at 37 in order to reclaim her title. It’s seriously inspiring, and it’s best enjoyed on the beach while doing no physical activity whatsoever.” —Cosmopolitan
“An epic story about bravery, endurance, but also the power of vulnerability.” —BuzzFeed
“An epic comeback story…. [Reid] underscores the challenges and complications that come with being the best of the best.” —TIME
“[This] impactful story is about ambition and drive and what it means to be a woman who wants it all while the world is watching…. Reid’s latest does not disappoint.” —BuzzFeed
“One of the most hyped books of the year…. The powerful and inspiring story of the titular character, who briefly appeared in her 2021 novel Malibu Rising…. We have nothing but love-love for this book.” —E! News
“This novel will grab you. You’ll tear through blow-by-blow descriptions of championship matches on some of the most famous tennis courts in the world…. Entrancing…. The perfect novel to close out your summer.” —The Washington Post
“In her latest must-read novel, Reid artfully weaves narratives of self-doubt, parental expectations, smoldering romance and the heavy price of sacrificing it all for athletic greatness. . . . This should make your list of the most-anticipated books of 2022.” —Reader’s Digest (Editor’s Pick)
“Taylor Jenkins Reid has done it again….

“Taylor Jenkins Reid [is] a master of celebrity storytelling…. Reid is so good at underscoring [tennis] with clear characterization and urgent storytelling that the sports stuff never feels overbearing…. Her characteristic lively style keeps the writing light and propulsive even when the themes are heavy. At the heart of it all is Carrie and her father’s relationship, a delicate dance of steely determination and tenderness that observes parenting flaws without ever vilifying. This is some of Reid’s best writing: focused, colourful and compassionate.” —iNews
“Reid writes about the game with suspense, transforming a tennis match into a page-turner even for readers who don’t care about sports. . . . Reid has scored another victory and created another memorable heroine with Carrie Soto, a brash, often unlikable character whose complexity makes her leap off the page. . . . Readers will root for her both on and off the court. A compulsively readable look at female ambition.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Reid has written another knockout of a book.” —Library Journal (starred review)
“Reid captures the excitement of elite sports in her descriptions of Carrie’s games, as well as the struggle that women athletes face when their ambition and confidence is ’too much.’ But the most affecting moments are when Carrie lets her guard down and shows the woman behind the myth. . . . It’s another triumph for bestselling author Reid, and her growing number of fans will be thrilled to see cameo appearances from characters from her earlier books. . . . Reid’s previous works…have been phenomenal hits, so expect no less from her latest.” —Booklist (starred review)
