A STEAMY RIVALS-TO-LOVERS WORKPLACE ROMCOM FOR FANS OF HANNAH GRACE AND SALLY THORNE
Annie Radford swore she'd never work in college basketball again, but eight years after fleeing her job with the Ardwyn Tigers, she has no choice but to accept a role as the team's hype woman and videographer.
Annie's old friend and colleague, Ben Callahan, is as sexy and wholesome as ever, but why is he so determined to undermine her? Clearly, he hasn't forgiven her for disappearing on him in senior year.
When Annie and Ben find themselves competing to keep their jobs, tensions rise and old feelings come sizzling to the surface.
With everything on the line, including their hearts, can they put their differences aside to work together and save the team? Or will the truth of why Annie left destroy their tentative new relationship . . . ?

Reading in Brussels N, Reviewer
You know how sometimes you start reading a book, thinking "hey, I'm gonna read only one chapter", and then before you know it you're 48% in and it just keeps getting better and you're too invested to stop? This was my experience with One on One. This book sneaked up on me, grabbed me by the throat and didn't let go for even one minute.
Ben and Annie? I could feel them falling for each other. Theirs was a slow-burn, from the very first moment they see each other again, through working together, the basketball tournaments, the Monday nights of reality-TV watching and all the other moments in between.
I loved the way this story was told. It was tender and heartfelt, while treating an important underlying subject. I knew where it was going, and I loved seeing how it all unfurled. Very early into the book I felt that it was going to be a favorite, and that feeling did not leave me - adding to my 2024 favorites list!
One on One is a stunning debut, and I look forward to reading more from Jamie Harrow.

Jamie Harrow’s stunning debut ‘One on One’ skillfully blends a slow-burn romance between two former colleagues against a backdrop of university basketball. This book also sensitively deals with misconduct in sport and how it's overlooked in pursuit of the win and the money.
Eight years after fleeing her alma mater, videographer Annie Radford reluctantly returns broke and desperate for a steady job. What she doesn't expect is a hostile reaction from her former colleague Ben Callahan.
I was utterly hooked from the first sentence. The characters leapt off the page as Harrow captured the early hostility to burgeoning friends to a lot more. I loved the banter and chemistry between Annie and Ben as they slowly opened up to each other. I also loved how it wove in Annie's talent filming all the highs and lows to elevate the team. It really felt like Harrow did her research at what a videographer does, which is always a complaint I have about authors depicting workplaces.
I loved this book so much, it was so well written, exquisitely layered with compelling character arcs plus a divine, slowburn romance. I couldn't stop thinking about it after I finished reading. Warning: this book will give you a major book hangover.
Thanks to Quercus and NetGalley for the ARC.
