About the book
The hard-hitting Craig Dickson was as notorious for his games off the tennis courts as he was for those on them, and it didn't take journalist Suzy Bedford long to realise why. Although no sports fanatic, Suzy had been assigned to write a series of articles on a top tennis personality, which meant she was constantly thrown into Craig's disturbing orbit. Was he really conceited enough to believe her disinterest in tennis was a subtle ploy to attract his attention? Craig should realise that her career as a writer meant as much to her as his tennis did to him. But what of love? Suzy had already hesitantly let it into her life, but she suspected that Craig's life-style made him incapable of establishing any form of lasting relationship — and why should he when the glossy Elaine Esterson was so obviously available?
