Six-pack abs, cutthroat competition, nonstop drama. The second book in a hot new series inspired by one champion's teen years.

The Academy is an International Sports Mecca for teen athletes. There are only two ways in. Deep pockets or enough talent to score a scholarship. Young tennis star Maya's dreams have finally come true when she earns a scholarship to The Academy. Plucked from her small town, Maya moves to the sports training facility/boarding school to (hopefully) start the beginning of her pro career. But Maya's fantasy of The Academy doesn't quite match the reality. Because where there are hot, talented teens, there's a lot of drama. Meet the players: Nicole: A tennis star who feels threatened by Maya (but she'd never admit it). Cleo: Maya's rebel/punk roommate who is nearing the top of the golf world. Renee: The gorgeous swimmer with enough money to buy her way into The Academy. Travis: The son of The Academy owner--perfectly groomed to be the next NFL star. Jake: Travis' younger brother--the bad boy to his brother's good.

In this pressure-cooker environment, futures are forged in blood and sweat, and dreams are shattered in an instant. Penny Harrison, a rising star, is determined to win the French Open and beat her arch rival, Zina Lutrova. But when her coach imports British bad boy Alex Russell as her new training partner, will Penny be able to keep her laser-like focus? Tennis is all Jasmine Randazzo has ever known. The daughter of two Grand Slam champions, she's hell-bent on extending her family's legacy and writing her own happily-ever-after...until her chosen Prince Charming gives her the just-friends speech, right before the biggest junior tournament of the year, the Outer Banks Classic. With a powerful serve and killer forehand, newcomer Indiana Gaffney is turning heads. She's thrilled by all of the attention, especially from Jack Harrison, Penny's agent and hot older brother, except he keeps backing off every time things start heating up. With so much at stake, dreams-and hearts-are bound to break.

Book 2 of the Outer Banks Tennis Academy series Grass courts, tennis whites and the fiercest competition in the world. Wimbledon. After two crazy weeks in Paris, the girls of the Outer Banks Tennis Academy are headed to London with just one thing on their minds: winning. Indiana Gaffney is fresh off a surprise win at the French Open junior tournament. Sponsors are clamoring for her attention, but what she wants more than anything-aside from a wild card to Wimbledon-is to be with Jack Harrison, but international fame and a secret relationship rarely mix well. When Penny Harrison dreamed of playing at Wimbledon she never imagined agonizing pain shooting through her ankle with every step. With just a month until the tournament and the whole world expecting her to win, she's determined to play, with or without the support of her coach or the love of her life, Alex Russell. For the first time ever, no one expects anything from Jasmine Randazzo. After a crushing first-round defeat in the French Open juniors, the tennis world has given up on her, but worse than that, so have her parents, her best friend Teddy and maybe even her coach. With everyone writing her off, can she find it within herself to go after her dreams?

I should have listened to the snarky ferret. A hilarious Academy Paranormal Romance about parents, shagging, underdogs, and the perfect love potion I thought flunking out of college was the worst thing that could happen. But then my mother's ferret told me I was doomed. I really should have paid more attention. Now I have a boy stalking me through a pewter bowl (don't ask, just know he kisses like fire.) Some dark enchanter is trying to kidnap me to make golden babies. (No, not literally gold.) And apparently I'm supposed to select several members of a -- oh, I better not say it. My dad might be reading this. Let's call it a boy band. With lots of banging. (And probably not on drums.) So it's time to figure this mess out. That my mom did magic. And so can I. And I guess I have to beat the bad guys and save the world. Oh wait. Not the world. Just me. Game on. __ Love Spell is book one in the Love Spell Academy duet but can be read as a standalone. It's a slow burn on the -- ahem -- ensemble cast but fairly fast burn on the first member. Book two would definitely be considered a fast burn on all fronts.
