The Big Dink by Cynthia Gunderson
"Okay so— this one was cute. Like, slow burn, clean sports romance cute. The pacing’s on the slower side (definitely more chill than intense), but it works for the kind of story it is. It’s written in first person, only Alecia’s POV, and I won’t lie— " Read more of this review »

Quotes by Cynthia Gunderson  (?)

“When I first started improving at pickleball, I was shocked at the reaction from the male players around me. Not all of them, but enough that I seriously questioned whether I would continue playing. Either they continued to treat me like I wasn't capable of handling my own side or they closed off when I beat them. Those friendships, and even some potential romantic relationships, I thought I had? Gone. As soon as they weren't better than I was”
Cynthia Gunderson, The Hot Shot

“The urge to say something inspiring or somehow reassure him that it will be okay hits, but I swallow it. I hate when people do that. Sure, people are resilient and time does dull old wounds, but telling someone to look at the bright side is almost never the right answer in my experience. Even though I tend to be a "bright side" person.”
Cynthia Gunderson, The Hot Shot

“Driving two and a half hours up from the Springs so his son didn't have to change schools. Saving Mason on the court. Sorting clothes in the back room. Showing up at the firehouse on his day off because StriveLab needed his face and the station needed a drone
He is not a single dad who's bad at romance. He's a man who's spent the last two years trying to make up for a tragedy that he couldn't have fixed if he tried.”
Cynthia Gunderson, The Hot Shot
