Sometimes the hardest match is one you never meant to play.
After tennis star Georgie Porter retires at just thirty-one, she buys a campervan and returns to her hometown of Glenbriar, hoping to make amends for the hurts she caused to a former sweetheart. But instead of finding the man whose heart she broke many years ago, she comes face to face with his younger brother, Kerr.
Easy-going and quietly loyal, high school teacher Kerr Halley has strong opinions about Georgie Porter - and there are rules about interacting with your brother's ex, no matter how long ago she split with him. Especially when Kerr has always secretly carried a torch for her.
When they're thrown together to fundraise for a local sports project, old grudges begin to thaw, and Kerr's true feelings come to light.
As Georgie rediscovers the charm of small-town living, she's drawn to Kerr's warmth, his wit, and the way he sees the woman she is now - not just the girl she used to be. But falling for him means confronting her past... and risking fresh heartache within a family she's already hurt.
In a town where history runs deep and people have long memories, Kerr's loyalties are tested - and Georgie must decide if she's brave enough to play for love, and not just for victory.
