SOON TO BE A NETFLIX SERIES
A swoony romantic novel following an elite ice dancer caught in a love triangle with her new skating partner and an old flame.
“This story set on the ice is sure to ignite dreams and warm hearts.” —Laura Taylor Namey, New York Times bestselling author of A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow
Adriana Russo is figure skating royalty, born to gold-medalist parents and an equally talented sister. Adriana’s dream? To conquer the Junior World Championships and uphold the family legacy. But when the family’s legendary skating rink faces financial ruin, everything she’s worked for is at risk.
Training with her new partner, Brayden, sparks an idea: let the world believe their on-ice chemistry isn’t only for show. The fake-dating gains traction, and Adriana realizes maybe she actually is falling for Brayden. But then her past crashes into her present and changes everything, when Freddie, her former partner—and first crush—reenters the scene.
As the biggest competition of her life draws closer and her family’s legacy hangs in the balance, Adriana is torn between the future she’s worked so hard for with Brayden, and the one she gave up long ago with Freddie. Will she find her edge and claim her place at the top, or will her heart lead her in a different direction?
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In this dreamy, sports-themed YA romance, skating off into the sunset is harder than it sounds for an ice dancer who isn’t sure which irresistible guy she wants by her side. Adriana Russo is from a family of skating stars who are masters of the ice—not their finances. With the junior championships approaching, she’s devastated that they might lose their rink. But her skating partner, Brayden, has an idea. If the two of them play into the gossip that they’re dating, the hype should drum up enough sponsorship money to keep the rink running. Jennifer Iacopelli makes the stakes of this fake-romance plan feel realistic and lived in, especially when Adriana has to balance the chemistry brewing between her and Brayden with the desperate crush she’s still harboring for her old partner, Freddie, whom she sees at the rink constantly. Loosely inspired by Jane Austen’s Persuasion, this chilly rom-com has a very warm heart.
