Dink Wars: A Rival-to-Lovers Pickleball Romance

They were supposed to be rivals. So why does she suddenly want to kiss him instead of beat him?

Lena Park has spent years building Briarwood’s beloved pickleball league—so when grumpy newcomer Gavin Reid moves back to town and tries to shut down her courts, she’s ready to fight with everything she’s got. The problem? The whole town is watching. And meddling. And, apparently, placing bets.

Gavin just wanted some peace and quiet. Instead, he’s trapped in a small-town pickleball feud with a woman who thrives on competition, loves getting under his skin, and looks entirely too good doing it. When a high-stakes bet forces them into a winner-takes-all showdown, their rivalry turns into something else entirely—something involving late-night practice sessions, way too much tension, and a town that refuses to let them ignore it.

Now, Lena and Gavin have one match to settle the score. But when it comes to love and pickleball, is winning really the point?

A flirty, fast-paced romcom packed with sports rivalry, small-town shenanigans, and enough banter to keep the crowd entertained. Perfect for fans of enemies-to-lovers romance, grumpy heroes, and competitive flirting.
