Little, Brown Book Group, 2026

Things heat up on and off the court for two tennis rivals in this steamy debut gay sports rom-com, perfect for fans of TJ Alexander and Rachel Reid - a must-read for fans of Heated Rivalry. American tennis star Leo Chambers is determined to win the US Open by thirty, the age when many players feel retirement looming. He's just a year away from that dreaded birthday, but he can't find his focus - he hasn't told anyone he's gay; he's clashing with his strict coach (who also happens to be his dad); and he still can't figure out how to beat his long-time nemesis on tour, Gabe Montoya, who, well, hits different. Gabe is playing better than ever, and Leo can't seem to escape him - and maybe he doesn't want to . . . Leo's other obstacle is Sascha Volkov, a Russian legend who has such a powerful influence on the tennis world, he would destroy Leo's career if he found out that he's gay. No distractions, Leo reminds himself. But when Gabe makes a shocking announcement, Leo is thrown off his game - in more ways than one. ✨ Tropes ✨ 🎾pro tennis 🌈 gay romance 👨🏼‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏽 rivals to lovers 👥 forced proximity 😮‍💨 slow burn ✨ queer joy & found family 🥵 locker room scenes ✈️ travel porn (nyc, melbourne, paris, london) 💕 Why readers can't get enough of Thirty Love . . . 💕 'A fun and fresh rivals-to-lovers sports romance, perfect for fans of Heated Rivalry and queer love stories' Alison Cochrun 'Electric on the court, tender off it . . . a queer romance grand slam' Sarina Bowen 'Thirty Love brings the rivals-to-lovers tension and heat we all adore' Chip Pons 'An utterly charming and beautifully written enemies-to-lovers sports romance' Blair Fell 'Not only pure rivals-to-lovers bliss but also a masterclass in what it means to be your own champion' Matthew Hubbard 'Filled with queer banter and slow burn shenanigans . . . delightful from first serve to final match point' Tara Tai
