Cameron Carmichael used to be on top of the world - literally - as a World Snooker Champion and World Number One. These days, his mood is sinking faster than his ranking. Only thirty-one and barely holding on to his top-16 placement, his automatic pass into all the big tournaments, Cameron's considering retirement.
It might be time to hang up his snooker cue; the only thing keeping him on the circuit is a taste for the finer things in life and snooker does pay very well. And there's something else he has to deal with - an unavoidable attraction to Ryan Miller, a cocky young challenger with an eye for the trophies that used to be Cameron's.
"I'm fine" is the biggest lie ever told in the English language
This was great, and not at all what I expected.
Cameron is a bit full of himself, but still very relatable. I found the trials and tribulations of a playboy snooker champion made for compelling, believable reading with heaps of delicious angst.
There wasn't as much "hawt sex" as I expected, given the title and cover image, but that makes what is here all the sweeter, and Scarlett writes it well.
The romance here really takes a back seat to other things going on in Cam's life, and the "couple" are bisexual men in an "MM" relationship. If this sounds like your jam I heartily recommend it.
