Gemma Lennon, Britain's tennis darling, isn't about to let anything or anyone get in the way of the one thing that's eluded her, the one thing she wants more than anything else: to win a Grand Slam.
After a potential career-ending accident four months earlier, Gemma is determined to focus on tennis and nothing else. But, being in the spotlight 24/7 doesn't make for an easy task. With paparazzi stalking her every move, Gemma's game is under the utmost scrutiny. To win, she has to be the best on and off the court. For Gemma, there's no room for failure, and certainly no room for a love life. Tennis is her love. Period.
Enter Andre Reyes, the handsome American, who's not only a problem solver by trade, but off-the-charts brilliant. After a scorching meet-cute, Andre is captivated by Gemma, drawn in by her hypnotizing eyes. The best part, Andre has no idea she's a famous athlete; he's fascinated by her, not the public's ideal of her.
Gemma is just as fascinated by Andre as he is of her. As their interactions become more frequent, the tension between them builds. Gemma struggles to keep her mind on tennis and the tabloids are speculating whether or not she's ready for Wimbledon. For Gemma, it will take a lot more than just the love of the game to achieve what her heart desires, because when she finally figures out she wants tennis and Andre, it might be too late.
In the end, both Gemma and Andre learn that when it comes to matters of the heart, it's best to keep the score love-love, because that's when the real magic happens!
This is a fantastic book. I'm still in awe of Ara Grigorian's ability to weave the game of tennis into Gemma and Andre's whirlwind romance. It's beautiful. It takes an accomplished wordsmith to write such a layered, smart, and witty story. Well done! I look forward to more books by Ara Grigorian, his stories don't disappoint!

Game of Love edition by Ara Grigorian Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I am admittedly not much of a Romance reader. Everything is predictable and fairly formulaic. Give me a Dystopian culture and I'm wrapped up immediately. Romance - well, it takes a special book to have me up all night fighting sleep so I could finish "just one more chapter.."
However, Game of Love completely surprised me by leading me down paths where I just knew what was going to happen - and may have even had strong "conversations" (maybe even gripe sessions) with the Author (in my head, of course) about where this was all headed - but, pleasantly, I was wrong.
So often, especially when reading books with a "celebrity" angle, the celebrity comes across as someone so vain that you have no way of identifying with that character. Thankfully, Gemma and Andre were both very real people whom you wanted to care about and see them find happiness.
Heck - I may have even stopped to watch part of the French Open while I was reading this. Something I can promise you has NEVER happened...
Game of Love is set in the high-stakes world of professional tennis where fortune and fame can be decided by a single point.
Gemma Lennon has spent nearly all of her 21 years focused on one thing Winning a Grand Slam. After a disastrous and very public scandal and subsequent loss at the Australian Open, Gemma is now laser-focused on winning the French Open. Nothing and no one will derail her shot at winning - until a heated chance encounter with brilliant and sexy Andre Reyes threatens to throw her off her game.
Breaking her own rules, Gemma begins a whirlwind romance with Andre who shows her that love and a life off the court might be the real prize. With him, she learns to trust and love… at precisely the worst time in her career. The pressure from her home country, fans, and even the Prime Minister to be the first British woman to win in nearly four decades weighs heavily.
As Wimbledon begins, fabricated and sensationalized news about them spreads, fueling the paparazzi, and hurting her performance. Now, she must reconsider everything, because in the high-stakes game of love, anyone can be the enemy within… even lovers and even friends.
In the Game of Love, winner takes all.
WOW! What a FANTASTIC debut book for Ara! It was very well written and I absolutely LOVED Gemma & Andre! My words don't do enough to describe how awesome this book is!! This is a MUST READ!!!!!
You know it's a good book when it's the last thing you read at night and the first thing you reach for in the morning. This was the case for me with Game of Love.
Engaging and fast-paced, this novel offers a behind-the-scenes look at the life of an athlete/celebrity doing her best to stay focused on tennis despite the many demands on her time and attention. Even though a new romance isn't on Gemma's agenda, she can't resist the handsome and brilliant Andre Reyes (nor could I). I especially enjoyed reading about how Gemma and Andre handled the difficulties of nurturing a new romance while trying to avoid the paparazzi.
Following Andre and Gemma's relationship with all its hits, misses, and complications is a real treat. I adore smart, flirty banter and this book offers it in spades. It's especially delicious because it feels real rather than forced. In general, I prefer books written in first person, but Ara does a masterful job of including enough flavor and color that I didn't mind reading this book in third person. As someone who loves to travel, I appreciated the glamorous settings on the Left Coast and in Europe.
Overall, I recommend this book to anyone who wants a delightful romance they won't want to put down.
