As high school seniors, they’re poised to become world class figure skaters, on the path to the Olympic podium. Maddy has been in love from the start, watching from the sidelines as girl after girl falls for her gorgeous partner.

Attraction and temptation. Family turmoil and shifting identities. In Katie Van Ark’s sizzling debut, heated determination faces cold resistance in a competition for more than gold.
