Baseline

Victoria "Vix" Kang has spent five years being BLACKOUT's perfect idol. But when the music stops feeling like hers, the clothes stop feeling like her, and even the person fans scream for becomes a stranger in the mirror, she begins wondering what she's actually fighting to keep.

Then she meets Jamie Sinclair.

Jamie is twenty-two, African American, ranked No. 33 in the world, and chasing the one thing she's wanted since she first picked up a racquet: the top.

Their lives couldn't be more different. One belongs to stages, cameras, contracts and screaming crowds. The other belongs to courts, ruthless training, rankings and match points.

Somehow, they understand each other.

As Vix fights to reclaim her voice and build a career beyond BLACKOUT, Jamie fights her own battle to break into the highest ranks of professional tennis. Between them are continents, impossible schedules, public scrutiny, and careers that refuse to slow down for something as inconvenient as love.

But sometimes, starting over isn't about going somewhere new.

Sometimes, you just have to find your baseline again.
