Publisher's summary

The new novel from the New York Times best-selling author of The Devil Wears Prada and Revenge Wears Prada - a dishy tell-all about a beautiful tennis prodigy who, after changing coaches, suddenly makes headlines on and off the court.

Charlotte "Charlie" Silver has always been a good girl. She excelled at tennis early, coached by her father, a former player himself, and soon became one of the top juniors in the world. When she leaves UCLA - and breaks her boyfriend's heart - to turn pro, Charlie joins the world's best athletes, who travel 11 months a year, competing without mercy for Grand Slam titles and Page Six headlines.

After Charlie suffers a disastrous loss and injury on Wimbledon's Centre Court, she fires her longtime coach and hires Todd Feltner, a legend of the men's tour who is famous for grooming champions. Charlie is his first-ever female player, and he will not let her forget it. He is determined to change her good-girl image - both on the court and off - and transform her into a ruthless competitor who will not only win matches and climb the rankings but also score magazine covers and seven-figure endorsement deals. Her not-so-secret affair with the hottest male player in the world, sexy Spaniard Marco Vallejo, has people whispering, and it seems like only a matter of time before the tabloids and gossip blogs close in on all the juicy details. Charlie's ascension to the social throne parallels her rising rank on the women's tour - but at a major price.

Lauren Weisberger's novel brings us exclusive behind-the-scenes details from all the Grand Slam tournaments: the US Open, the French Open, the Australian Open, and Wimbledon. Charlie Silver jets around the globe, plays charity matches aboard Mediterranean megayachts, models in photo shoots on Caribbean beaches, walks the red carpet at legendary player parties, and sidesteps looming scandals - all while trying to keep her eyes on the real prize. In this sexy, pause-resisting novel about young tennis stars who train relentlessly to compete at the highest levels while living in a world obsessed with good looks and Instagram followers, Charlie must discover the secret to having it all - or finally shatter the illusion for good.

Entertaining

This book was a fun listen. I expected it to be somewhat more humorous than it was, but was still enjoyable.

Sporty Summer read

I enjoyed this book it was an easy listen and engaging story about a tennis star on the pro circuit. Very similar to Carrie Soto is back which I also enjoyed. The narrator did a good job but her male voices, especially European male voices were a little irritating. All in all I recommend as a great summer beach read!

Exciting. Good insight

This author did very good research taking the reader through all the emotions, stress, trauma a professional tennis player experiences climbing to the top of her game. An excellent book! Great narration-guides reader/listener through the highs, lows, challenge, persistence needed toward excellence.

Great combo of writer and reader and story!

This is a book I have probably listened to four times, and it's still interesting. Very likeable and real protagonist, no clue how anyone but an actual professional tennis player wrote this, the detail is all here (a pro might disagree, but for now I'm sticking to that!) I was so disappointed in a couple of Lauren's other books, and will probably lose a few of you with that, but "The Singles Game" has focus. You don't have to wait until you're halfway into the book (Like "Last Night At..." ) to understand what that title has to do with the story, or like in "Revenge..." , wonder the entire time. I want to be lost in a book, feel it happening around me, and that is exactly what I get, even after multiple listenings.
There are a lot of spoilers on Good Reads, so I'd steer clear of that (mostly people who missed the point and "needed" the author to tell them something completely non-essential to the story) The reader is very believable as Charlotte "Charlie" Silver, not as much with sexy Spanish and Russian accents. Unless your imagination is better than mine, you might think the hottest guy in tennis looks like a cartoon mouse : 0)
I still have a few questions I would like to ask the author, but not things that ruin the story. Definitely a good choice when resting with a headache but still hoping for entertainment.

The Male Voice of Morality

There’s always a male voice of morality through tall these books telling the ambitious woman that her ambition is not good. It was Nate in the Devil Wears Prada, and now the father in this book. Why does it seem like a woman’s ambition and willingness to work is not a good thing?
