Anyone for tennis?

To coincide with the Wimbledon championships I am offering my award-winning nostalgic LGBT novella for free until 5th July on Xin Xii with the following coupon code: BAB3AA5A9F

https://www.xinxii.com/en/break-point-p-362240.html

"It's the beginning of the 1999 Wimbledon Tennis Championships. Bobbie and girlfriend, June, have avidly followed the championships together for years. But this year Bobbie and June have split up after Bobbie slept with best friend Babs. June has gone to Denmark and Bobbie gets a job caring for a difficult old woman. Soon it's not just Wimbledon where the competitive rallies, the lobs and the drop-volleys are being played, as carers fall like seeds, and only those with the deadliest return of serve and long blond hair may survive to the final.

This is as much about secrets, taboos, forbidden sexuality and intergenerational differences as it is tennis.

Winner of one of the Paparazzi Sports Fiction Awards 2010 and previously published in paperback."

This short novel has been awarded a place on the Awesome Indies list of quality independent fiction.
