The 7-10 Split: A Romantic Comedy (Original)

Description

For fans of Ashley Herring Blake's Delilah Green Doesn't Care and Chencia C. Higgins' D'Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding comes an utterly charming and queerly irresistible romantic comedy...where all's fair in love and bowling.
This is how love rolls...

For teacher Ava Williams, some subjects are not up for debate. Like history--specifically, the one she has with Grace Jones, bowling pro and local celeb. Who is now, for no identifiable reason, teaching at the same small-town Georgia high school as Ava. Once upon a time, they were thick as thieves, best friends, rivals who pushed each other, and total bowling nerds. Then they shared a kiss, sweet and confusing...and after that, they split and nothing was ever the same.

Ava is pretty sure she has every reason to hate Grace. Especially when the school's soggy potato of a principal announces--finally--that the students can have the bowling team Ava has been pushing for, for years...only to hand it to Grace.

Now they're expected to be partners and lead their new bowling team to victory in six months. And with that, their rivalry is back. Fierce, ultracompetitive...and with an undeniable attraction that pushes, pulls and crashes together. It's history. It's chemistry. And it's just a matter of time before it explodes...one way or the other.

Reviews

PRAISE FOR KARMEN LEE'S THE 7-10 SPLIT

"Loaded with wit, unrealized feelings, and unresolved history, Lee's The 7-10 Split delights and elevates a bowling rivalry between the cutest pairing with a striking side of steam." --Kelly Cain, author of An Acquired Taste

"Charming, witty and full of heart, The 7-10 Split is second chance romance at its finest. The laugh-out-loud scenarios and snappy banter left me rooting for Ava and Grace from the start. Karmen Lee has created the perfect formula--fiery tension, palpable chemistry and the willingness to forgive--leaving readers with what we love most: The ultimate HEA." -- Author Denise N. Wheatley

"Brimming with heart and humor, this second chance romance has it all--rivalry, tension, chemistry, longing, and of course, more than a few tricky 7-10 splits. A breathtaking, heartwarming romance." --Ashley Herring Blake, award-winning of Delilah Green Doesn't Care

"Lee does a great job balancing the characters' past and present. Their history is always lingering in the background, and when it comes to the foreground, it's that much more powerful, because it never feels like it's coming out of nowhere." --Autostraddle

"Lee's (Passion Over Pride) slow-burn second-chance romance makes a great addition to the Afterglow line and is sure to leave readers anxiously anticipating the next book in the series." --Library Journal

"[Such] HAWT sex scenes. [...] Every touch, kiss, caress, feels incredibly real and deliciously sexy. There is something extra sensual about the way Black women love on each other sexually, and I think [the author] captured that sensuality so perfectly. I was absolutely fanning myself after each sex scene." --Autostraddle
