Team Spirit by R J Gould

Thank you @rararesoucers for letting me be part if this tour and reviewing this book. Team Spirt is a comedy sports genre that is about tennis club. I love tennis, which is why I wanted to read Team Spirt. This is book 4 of the series, but you can read as a standalone, as I did. There is a lot going on in the story with the characters, Bribes, chaos going on in the tennis club, players not playing the game correctly, arguments, challenges and romance. It was very entertaining following all these ups and down in the tennis club, it has made me not want to join lol. I did like how R J Gould shows you that it's not all fun in clubs, that occasionally you can have problems but also found a lot of positives like romance and making you smile. The story is well written and will make you laugh in places. Team Spirt is a light-hearted read that will keep you entertained to the end. I did like Laurie and Helen and did feel for them with the problems that were happening in the club, and I was rooting for the pair of them to get together. Furthermore, I will definitely read the rest of the series. If you like Tennis and humour, then this book is definitely for you. 4 stars. I did enjoy reading Team Spirt totally different from what I normally read which is always good thing. Team Spirit: a humorous take on tennis club turmoil Everything seems straightforward enough with agreement reached for the tennis club to hold social events at the nearby Dream Café while the clubhouse is being rebuilt. When Oliver Kilroy is forced to resign as club chairman after taking a bribe from the builder, Laurie, his young and inexperienced deputy, is left in charge of running the club. He accepts the post on condition that the attractive Helen is prepared to support him as the new deputy. The pair are faced with an unprecedented run of challenges. The builder is failing to deliver on time. A player’s dubious line calls are infuriating opponents. The WhatsApp group has become a hotbed of slanderous gossip. A middle-aged flirt is antagonising the female members. And poor behaviour at the Dream Café is threatening the agreement. Helen and Laurie are struggling to cope, though tennis club problems are a distant second for Helen as she attempts to start a relationship with Laurie. She’s sure he also wants that but something major is going on in his life to prevent progress. What is that something and can it be overcome?
