Courting Carlyn by Melissa Chambers
Publication Date: August 6, 2018
Publisher: Entangled Teen
Vaughn Yarborough is ready to trade the fame and glory of the international junior pro tennis circuit for college and a more settled life. First stop: spearhead a summer camp for underprivileged kids. The girl who’s agreed to run it with him has Vaughn more intrigued by the minute, but with the strict no-fraternizing rules, he’s got to figure out how not to fall for her.
When the boy Carlyn Sadowski has crushed on for years asks her to work with him for the summer, she has to pinch herself. When his world-famed coach offers her training for free, she can’t believe her luck. He could actually help her follow in her mother’s footsteps by playing college tennis. But when she finds out the catch is she’s got to convince Vaughn to go pro, Carlyn will have to decide between her dreams and the boy currently stealing her heart.

Cover Love
For as long as I’ve had this book in my head, I’ve imagined a young couple on the tennis court. Then when I went to photo search so I could give some examples to the designer, I found that my dream photo did not exist! Not that I could find. There were pictures of couples, but they were all smiling cheesily at the camera like they were in a chewing gum commercial.
So when the designer came back with this cover, I breathed a sigh of relief. I love that we can’t see the upper half of the models’ faces, so it leaves some mystery for the reader to fill in their own descriptions. My favorite teen and go-to advisor for all things YA likes the way they are gazing into each other’s eyes so close, but not too close.
When I look at this cover, I think of a possible first kiss right at the net on the tennis court, which as a tennis fan, is a little like chocolate ice cream cake with sprinkles on top!
