Overview
Grand Slam is a must-read queer sports rom-com that Steven Rowley, NYT bestselling author of The Guncle, lauds as a “fun, romantic, and winning debut.”
Out—but not loud and proud—British tennis star Mac MacGregor is upping his game this season. He’s sure to kick his reputation as a hothead with the help of his new, expensive but effective coach. To swing the costs of a new entourage, he’ll need all the brand deals and PR rehab he can get.
Enter queer American sportswriter Rory Wilson. Rory built his career on stories centering LGBTQ+ athletes. So when his boss offers him a chance to profile the only openly gay male tennis pro during the four Grand Slam tournaments, Rory jumps at the chance. He’s sure he can get an overdue promotion by getting Mac to open up, thanks to their shared queer identity.
There’s only one problem: Mac is determined to make sure his queer identity isn’t the story.
While the reluctant pair travel from country to country and Mac slowly begins to let down his walls, their working relationship brings good press, match wins, and undeniable chemistry. But their growing attraction complicates Rory’s assignment, blurring professional boundaries neither of them can afford to cross.
When romance rumors threaten both of their careers, the pair face a decision: embrace life as a team, or call game, set, and match on their relationship.
