“Filled to the brim with smart wit and delicious tension, See You at the Finish Line is a must read!”
—Hannah Bonam-Young, USA Today bestselling author of Out on a Limb

“If you thought the only thing Red, White and Royal Blue was missing was some strenuous activity, Zac Hammett’s delicious debut is your new favorite romance.”
—Justinian Huang, author of Lucky Seed

Heartthrob George wants to prove he's smart enough to graduate. Nerdy Lucas wants to finally ask his crush out. They strike a deal to get what they want . . . but they may accidentally splash into a row-mance together in this queer, sports rom-com.

George and Lucas can’t stand each other—which makes it very awkward being on the same Cambridge University rowing team. The uber-charming, all-American George got accepted at Cambridge for his sporting prowess, not his subpar grades. Economics whizz and sarcasm expert Lucas, meanwhile, works hard for everything he’s got, which sadly does not include a boyfriend.

When the news leaks that George receives academic preferential treatment—Cambridge couldn’t lose their star athlete, after all—he’s told he must actually study this year to pass his exams. That’s when he zeroes in on Lucas for help. Lucas agrees, but on one condition: George will teach Lucas his lothario ways so he can finally seduce his long-time crush, Amir.

But soon they're in way over their heads, seducing and cheating their way to what they want. As they face rivals within their own squad and cutthroat competitors at Oxford, they find themselves unexpectedly becoming closer. What happens when your worst enemy may just be who you needed all along?
