Save the Courts (Willow Creek Pickleball)

By: Wayne Abruzzo

When the heart of the community is threatened, love and rivalry take center court.

Gabriela Torres has devoted her life to fighting for Willow Creek-a vibrant, tight-knit neighborhood where the local park and its aging pickleball courts are more than just a backdrop; they're the soul of the community. But when a slick real estate firm eyes the park for demolition, Gabriela refuses to let progress steamroll her friends, her memories, and her home.

Caleb Thorne, a rising star at Pinnacle Properties Group, is used to winning. For him, the redevelopment of Willow Creek Park is the deal that could make his career. He doesn't expect to be facing off against Gabriela, the fiery activist whose passion for justice is matched only by her tenacity on the pickleball court.

As heated debates spill over from city hall to the pickleball courts, Gabriela and Caleb find themselves locked in a high-stakes match-one that blurs the lines between rivalry and attraction. Their chemistry crackles, both in gameplay and in the moments between. But with the community's future hanging in the balance, each must decide what they're truly fighting for.

Can Gabriela save the courts and her beloved neighborhood without sacrificing her heart? And will Caleb choose ambition, or will he discover that home can mean something more?

Save the Courts, book one in the Willow Creek Pickleball series, is a heartwarming, enemies-to-lovers sports romance brimming with high-octane pickleball gameplay, small-town charm, community spirit, and the irresistible thrill of finding love where you least expect it.
