Mike could be a world
class swimmer if he took care of himself better, so his team coach calls
in a private trainer, up and coming hardass Jessy Turner. Jessy locks
Mike down, putting him on a strict regimen that Mike resents a lot until
he finds himself becoming a better swimmer for it.
Swimmer Mike Gauliet and
coach Jessy Turner are back in this second book in the Personal Best
series! Mike is moving up in the elite ranks of the American swim team,
despite his repetitive stress injuries. He’s hiding his pain from Jessy,
not wanting to give in to it or let his coach down, and by the time he
gets treatment, it’s almost too late.

After a scandal of Olympic proportions, Vince Dawson has lost his job as a diving coach and is on a downhill slide. So when he sees Austin Brody at a local pool, diving like a trained athlete, he thinks he's found his ticket back to the big leagues. Austin is the least likely man to go to diving meets. He dives for beer, smokes, and works double shifts as a welder. He thinks Vince might be a little crazy, wanting him to try diving competitively, but he's willing to give it a shot. What Austin isn't willing to do is let Vince rule him, and he argues about everything from waxing to wearing Speedos. Used to young, up-and-coming athletes who fold under pressure from their coach, Vince finds Austin's independence baffling; and hot. The two find common ground, gradually working toward being more than just friends, but can they compete? The world of a professional athlete takes money, time, and hard work. Austin and Vince are both willing to fight for what they want, but will they be able to work their way up the ladder to the kind of elite competition it will take to get Austin noticed?
