IN PROGRESS- will be fully published December 10, 2025. Full prologue inside. This story contains steamy scenes, and is recommended for 18+. Serena Voss is spiraling. Figure skating has miraculously taken her to college with a scholarship. Now left with guardianship of her high school brother, she's struggling to make her finances and lifestyle align with the future she wants for him. Elijah Accardi doesn't know how to love. As if he's Pinocchio's long-lost brother, he feels strung around under the burning gaze of his father-every step of his future mapped out, every dream suffocated. Two separate struggles, both hidden behind silently pained eyes. One glides through life, hiding her pain beneath the shavings of her skate blades; the other drowns in the shadow of his family, suffocating under the weight of an inheritance he never wanted. Both carry the expectations of the world on their shoulders, terrified of the cracks showing before they can find the strength to fix them. In the silence of their worlds, the truth is being buried deep inside- until the cracks in the façade threaten to break them both past restoration.
