Summary

Audible proudly presents a spicy sports romance narrated by Sophie Nelisse (Heated Rivalry) and Archie Madekwe (Salt Burn).

When Emily Parker, a fiercely driven American coxswain, lands a rowing scholarship to Oxford University, she’s determined to make the legendary team.

Far from home and desperate to prove herself, she comes up against a wall of privilege and prejudice. But Emily refuses to let anyone rock her boat - least of all the entitled and arrogant Oxford rowing captain, Hugh Willock.

Forced into the same team, their strokes start way out of sync, until competition and chemistry pull them into a dangerously smooth rhythm. What begins as a clash of wills soon builds into something that feels even more thrilling than winning…

But Cambridge’s golden boy and rowing captain, Xander Cadish, also has his sights set on Emily and the current between them crackles with something dangerous.

With the annual Oxbridge boat race looming on the horizon, Emily finds herself torn between two rivals - and two impossible choices. Can she find a way to pull together before her heart, and her team, capsize for good?

Perfect for fans of Icebreaker and Challengers, Bianca Willis delivers a steamy, high-stakes love triangle set against one of the most iconic rivalries in sport.

Really enjoyed this book and storyline! To a point that I googled the Oxford boat race. Narrators had great accents too. Highly recommend.

As a rower in one of the Putney clubs with affiliation with Oxford and Cambridge this story line was brilliant. It hit close to home! The love story was great as well as the emotions that came with it! The rowing parts were also on point to the feeling we get doing the sport we love!

Perfect!

I’m from Oxfordshire so I’m biased but I loved this story of live, passion, sporty competition and centred around the historic Oxford / Cambridge boat race. A great book and well worth a listen. Pleasantly surprised

A fantastic listen! One of the best complimentary books I’ve listened to

Pretty surprisingly sweet storyline, you root for both male characters for their differences, I’m personally a brown eye fan. Learnt a lot about rowing.


The voice actress has a very interesting English accent??

Very sweet
