In her designer shoes and power suits, she’s a world away from the quirky tech startup she now leads.

With his thick-framed glasses and graphic tees, Liam’s relaxed, out-of-the-box attitude reminds her too much of her father’s more exasperating quirks. But his dedication and quiet stubbornness begin to drive her crazy in a completely different way.​

As Vivien navigates the complexities of her new role, someone starts stealing the company’s best game ideas, and an FBI agent begins to investigate her father’s mysterious death. Determined to save her father’s legacy for her sister, Vivien finds herself torn between her desire to return to her life in New York and the unexpected connection she’s developing with Liam.​

Two tennis players standing with rackets, promoting "Love. Set. Match." by Taylor Lunsford, Match Set Series Book One.
Later Alpha Males, Nerd Boy is here! While I love the Alpha Male as much as the next girl there is something unreasonably sexy about a guy who loves his mom, his dog, and is willing to let his girl do things her way (unless she’s really screwing things up). Not that Vivian is the type of woman who would let a guy take over I love how Liam offers support and assistance without sweeping in and solving the problem. Girl Power!

Liam and Viv throw sparks like the 4th of July from the first meeting and don’t disappoint. Their different styles and personalities match in a way you wouldn’t expect them to without feeling forced or awkward. A perfectly paced romance with elements of suspense this book does not disappoint. Taylor Lunsford is now a permanent fixture on my One-Click list.

Love. Set. Match. is a steamy, emotional sports romance that explores themes of redemption, trust, and second chances.Perfect for fans of strong female leads, sizzling chemistry, and the world of professional tennis.​

I’m not really a regular romance reader, but Love. Set. Match. really grabbed me in just the first few chapters, and I honestly couldn’t put it down! Lunsford creates really likable characters that are witty and driven, and some truly villainous antagonists that add some thrills and plot curves where a reader might not expect them. Most of all, I love how the hero and heroine’s families are a vital part of their lives (and the plot!) and there is realistic, healthy support, conflict, and growth between those family members. Couldn’t recommend this more, ESPECIALLY to tennis fans!

Ah, sports romance. The romance above all others that involves the “I can’t be distracted so I can’t have a relationship” trope. Love. Set. Match. is no different, so the question becomes, is the reason for the skittishness compelling? Is the story compelling?

I really enjoyed this read. It had the right level of emotional angst plus the right level of drama. Which is to say, not too much of either.
