Quinn Taylor has made a career out of looking calm. On the ice, she's America's favorite kind of pressure-proof-bright smile, steady answers, the skater everyone wants to root for. Off the ice, she's an only child with a perfectionist's brain and a habit of carrying too much alone. The cameras love her. The country expects her. And the one place she can't afford to fall apart is the one place she's dreamed of since she was little. The Olympics. Macklin Celebrini has always made things feel lighter. He was the new kid at a Northern California rink at twelve-Canadian, polite, a little lost-until Quinn decided he was hers to keep. He became her best friend in the cold air and early mornings, the person who could make her laugh mid-breakdown and never ask her to perform for him. Then life did what life does: seasons changed, schedules got brutal, distance widened, and the kind of friendship that felt unbreakable turned into occasional texts and quiet missing. Now they're both back where the world is loudest. At the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, Quinn is chasing the skate of her life for Team USA. Mack is carrying his own weight for Team Canada hockey. When reporters find out they grew up together, the story writes itself-childhood friends reunited, smiles caught on camera, a thousand strangers deciding what they are to each other. The only problem is... the strangers aren't entirely wrong. Between past chapters at a small California rink and present days in the Olympic Village, Quinn and Mack have to figure out what they really meant to each other then-and what they're allowed to be now, with medals on the line and the whole world watching. Because it's one thing to love someone quietly from a distance. It's another to have them show up in your life again and make everything feel possible.

But the more their paths keep crossing, the more impossible that becomes. And the last thing he expects... is that Camille is about to become a permanent part of his life.

Annelise Carter has always been the easy one to overlook. The responsible friend. The quiet one. The girl who follows the rules, keeps her head down, and doesn't make messes-literal or otherwise. At nineteen, she's new to San Jose, working long hours at a salon, building something for herself from scratch. It's not glamorous, but it's safe. Predictable. Controlled. Exactly how she likes it. So when her client-Quinn, effortlessly cool and impossible not to like-invites her to hang out, Annie tells herself it's just a one-time thing. Just a night out with people who feel a little louder, a little brighter than anything she's used to. She doesn't expect Will. Will is everything Annie has spent her life avoiding-confident, charming, and completely at ease in chaos. The kind of guy who fills a room without trying. The kind of guy who knows exactly what he's doing when he looks at her a second too long, smiles a little too slow. And the kind of guy who absolutely shouldn't be interested in her. But he is. From the moment they meet, something shifts. The teasing comes easy. The attention lingers. And somehow, beneath all the noise and laughter, Will softens-quietly, instinctively-like Annie is the only thing that can slow him down. That's what scares her. Because Annie knows how this goes. Girls like her don't end up with guys like Will. Not without getting hurt. Not without losing parts of themselves in the process. And no matter how gentle he is with her, no matter how different he feels when it's just the two of them- She can't ignore the voice in her head telling her it's a bad idea. He's too experienced. She's too careful. They're too different. Right? SPINOFF OF double fantasy- macklin celebrini
