📚 Book Review 📚
Team Spirit by R J Gould
I received an advance review copy for free thanks to Rachel's Random Resources and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Blurb
Everything seems straightforward enough when an agreement is reached for the tennis club to hold social events at the nearby Dream Café while the clubhouse is being rebuilt.
When the current chairman is forced to resign, Laurie, his young and inexperienced deputy, is left in charge, accepting the role on condition that the attractive Helen is prepared to support him as the new deputy.
The pair face an unprecedented run of challenges. The builder is failing to deliver on time. A player's dubious line calls are infuriating opponents. The WhatsApp group has become a hotbed of salacious gossip. A middle-aged flirt is offending the young female members. And poor behaviour at the Dream Café is threatening the agreement.
Helen and Laurie are struggling to cope, though tennis club problems are a distant second for Helen as she attempts to start a relationship with Laurie. She's sure he also wants that but something major is going on in his life to prevent progress. What is that something and can it be overcome?
My Opinion
Team Spirit is the second book I have read in the Dream Cafe series and has been written to work as a stand-alone novel. At just under 300 pages this was a relatively quick read. With a few entertaining group conversations this was a light-hearted read that definitely left me with a smile. Gould is not an author that I have read a lot of, but so far all the books I have read have been enjoyable.
Rating 4/5
