A TikTok sensation! Sparks fly when a competitive figure skater and hockey team captain are forced to share a rink.

Anastasia Allen has worked her entire life for a shot at Team USA. It looks like everything is going according to plan when she gets a full scholarship to the University of California, Maple Hills and lands a place on their competitive figure skating team.

Nothing will stand in her way, not even the captain of the hockey team, Nate Hawkins.

Nate’s focus as team captain is on keeping his team on the ice. Which is tricky when a facilities mishap means they are forced to share a rink with the figure skating team—including Anastasia, who clearly can’t stand him.

But when Anastasia’s skating partner faces an uncertain future, she may have to look to Nate to take her shot.

Sparks fly, but Anastasia isn’t worried…because she could never like a hockey player, right?

I was not expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did. Loved every second of it. If only men in real life could be written by women. ISO my very own Nathan

Maybe I’m a simp but i kinda loved this book. The spice was spiccccciiin’. Nathan was…. whew. I loved the family dynamic between the hockey team. I’ve legit never watched a hockey game or figure skating which is why I put off reading this for so long but I guess I’m in to hockey romances now.
