But when fate brings Eli back, older and even more guarded, the past collides with the present-and the feelings Emily thought she'd buried come rushing back. Maybe this time... it's not the wrong time.

AMBER Hate. Fury. Despise. These are the 3 words that comes to my mind when I think of Maddison Powers, my best friends sister, she drives me crazy with everything she says. I'm the founder of Bishop Group, a multi- billionaire company, and everytime I see her again or talk to her I feel my skin burning. MADDIE Annoying. Madenning. Self- centered. That's all Amber Bishop is, I swear I can't understand how Valentina, my sister, even stands her, she is everything I go against. I'm the COO of my sisters firm Powers firm and I have my hand full with that, but somehow my and Amber's way always cross, I just wish it didn't because it takes everything in me not to push her against a wall and strandle the shit out of her. Maddison Powers and Amber Bishop know each other ever since they were little, because Amber and Valentina are best friends, no one knows why they hate each other that much, not even them, but what they do know is that despite the fact that they both sleep around with other people and don't get into relationships the only shared thing in them is the hatred towards each other. Could that ever change?

It was supposed to be anonymous. Just some harmless, late-night messeges on a forum. No names. No photos. No real-life complications. She was GoldTrap-mysterious, sharp, and way too good with words. I was BlueInk-awkward, sarcastic, and definitely not looking for anything. But then she made me laugh. Then she made me think. Then... she made me feel things I really shouldn't be feeling for someone I've never met. I'm Quinn. Twenty-four. Screenwriter-in-training. Emotionally a little chaotic and basically there no reason an amazing woman like her would be falling for someone like me. I've played a lot of roles in my life. But never this one. ----------------------------------------------- Late at night, I started writing letters to a stranger on a private forum-just to feel something real. She calls herself BlueInk. She's young, clever, infuriatingly honest... and somehow, she sees right through me. She doesn't know I'm Juliette Delaney-Hollywood's favorite ice queen with a face on every magazine and a life that doesn't belong to me anymore. She doesn't know that when I type, my hands shake. That when I read her replies, I smile. That I'm craving her words more than I've ever craved the spotlight. And I don't know what will happen if she finds out who I am. Because if I tell her the truth, I might lose the one person who loves me for who I really am. Not the icon. Not the actress. Just... me. But if I don't? I'll never get to feel her say my name out loud.

As the daughter of a legendary figure skater, she's spent her entire life striving to be the best-pushing herself harder, faster, and farther. But when she's forced to share the ice with Aurora Bennett, Camille's world is turned upside down. Aurora doesn't just glide on the ice; she owns it. Confident, competitive, and effortlessly talented, Aurora is everything Camille hates-everything Camille fears she'll never be. The two are rivals, both driven by the weight of family expectations and their burning need to be the top athlete. But when fate and the rink force them into close quarters, the animosity between them begins to shift into something neither of them can control. Trapped together, their forced proximity ignites a firestorm of tension. Camille can't decide if she wants to throttle Aurora or kiss her. Aurora's confidence rattles Camille's composure, and every touch on the ice sends sparks flying. But as they push each other to new limits, they find that their rivalry is just the beginning of something much deeper, more complicated-and far more dangerous to their hearts.
