Touch & Turn: A 1990s Second-Chance Swimming Romance

“I don’t mean to be rude—” the perfect precursor to an unwitting insult “—but you beat me, and you’re just a girl.

At first she thought he was a dick — a typical egotistical swim jock: she was right.

She was also the first thing that ever made him want to be more.

Then he realised that she was who he needed — and proved he could become who she wanted.

A twist of fate broke them up. Pride kept them apart.

He went from the top of the podium to rock bottom — and just when he makes his peace with where he’s landed… guess who shows up.

Touch & Turn is a second-chance romance set in the world of elite swimming.

Canadian swimmer Jimmy Connor is blindsided by a new arrival to his competitive training program.

Nao MacRae pushes him beyond his comfort zone, raising the temperature both in and out of the water.

Filled with chlorine, cassette tapes, and calls on the house phone (where anyone can listen in), the competition runs from Toronto to Sydney, spanning the 1990s.

This is an enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn spicy romance with a heat that no amount of time in the water can cool down.

Releasing on 29 October, 2026
