Description
Cuando Carrie se retira del tenis, es la mejor jugadora que el mundo ha visto jamás. Ha batido todos los récords y ha conseguido veinte títulos de Grand Slam. Y si le preguntas, se merece cada uno de ellos. Lo ha sacrificado casi todo para convertirse en la mejor, con su padre como entrenador. Pero seis años después de retirarse, Carrie se encuentra en las gradas del US Open de 1994, viendo cómo una tenista británica brutal e impresionante llamada Nicki Chan le arrebata el récord. Con treinta y siete años, Carrie toma la decisión de salir de su retiro para entrenar con su padre un último año, con la intención de recuperar su récord. Aunque la prensa deportiva le ponga nombres desagradables. Aunque ya no tenga la misma agilidad que antes. Y aunque eso signifique tragarse el orgullo para entrenar con un hombre al que una vez casi le abrió su corazón: Bowe Huntley. Al igual que ella, él tiene algo que demostrar antes de abandonar el deporte para siempre. A pesar de todo, Carrie Soto ha regresado para una última y épica temporada.
Description
Carrie Soto is fierce, and her determination to win at any cost has not made her popular. But by the time she retires from tennis, she is the best player the world has ever seen. She has shattered every record and claimed twenty Grand Slam titles. And if you ask Carrie, she is entitled to every one. She sacrificed nearly everything to become the best, with her father, Javier, as her coach. A former champion himself, Javier has trained her since the age of two. But six years after her retirement, Carrie finds herself sitting in the stands of the 1994 US Open, watching her record be taken from her by a brutal, stunning player named Nicki Chan. At thirty-seven years old, Carrie makes the monumental decision to come out of retirement and be coached by her father for one last year in an attempt to reclaim her record. Even if the sports media says that they never liked the Battle-Axe anyway. Even if her body doesnt move as fast as it did. And even if it means swallowing her pride to train with a man she once almost opened her heart to: Bowe Huntley. Like her, he has something to prove before he gives up the game forever. In spite of it all, Carrie Soto is back, for one epic final season. In this riveting and unforgettable novel, Taylor Jenkins Reid tells her most vulnerable, emotional story yet.
