What makes this a gem: Perhaps I am biased, as this fic was a gift for me in the recent Rare Ships!!! On Ice exchange, and as such was quite literally tailored to my preferences, but I'm absolutely enamoured with everything about this, from the tone to the romance to the excellent cast of characters. The setting is Sydney, 1965, and great care has been taken with every historical detail, as well as the inclusion of several actual events at the time. This is also a different sport AU, and I'm sure you'll agree that the mental image of Mila and Sara in 60s-style tennis outfits is a pretty fantastic one. The story pays great attention to both of their cultural backgrounds and follows a sweet, developing romance with a lovely balance of funny and tender moments. I've picked up on a new detail each time I've read this fic, and to me, that's the mark of a real gem.
