Carrie Soto Is Back by Taylor Jenkins ReidRead about the other entries on the list.
Carrie Soto’s determination to win at any cost has not made her popular. But by the time she retires from tennis, she is the best player the world has ever seen. Six years later, Carrie finds herself sitting in the stands of the 1994 U.S. Open, watching her record get taken from her.
She decides to come out of retirement and be coached by her father for one last year in an attempt to reclaim her record — even if it means training with a man she once almost opened her heart to: Bowe Huntley. Like her, he has something to prove before he gives up the game forever.
Carrie Soto Is Back is among Adrian Markle's seven sports novels about more than athleticism.
