Sloane Bennett has been chasing gold since she was sixteen.
A silver medal at her first Olympics nearly broke her. A gold at twenty proved she belonged. Now, at twenty-four, the New York Sirens superstar returns to the Olympic stage for the third time-stronger, sharper, and no longer the prodigy people whisper about.
She's inevitable.
Across the ice, so is he.
Jack Hughes has spent his entire life under a spotlight-first overall pick, franchise cornerstone, the golden child of American hockey. But there's only one person who has ever matched him stride for stride. Only one who never looked impressed. Only one who stripped him clean at eleven years old and grinned when he asked for again.
Now, for the first time, they wear the same flag.
With both Bennett siblings and two Hughes brothers anchoring Team USA, the Olympics become more than a tournament. They become collision. History. Proximity neither of them is prepared for.
Between shared family sections, late-night Village conversations, bruised ribs, and unbearable tension that stretches across two gold medal games, longing that began in childhood finally demands to be acknowledged.
But gold doesn't make life simple.
When the Games end, reality waits:
• Media frenzy.
• Headlines that write themselves.
• Separate leagues.
• Separate cities.
• Careers that don't slow down for love.
And for two people who have spent their lives chasing greatness, the question isn't whether they can win.
It's whether they can choose each other without losing themselves.
Because some rivalries are built on competition.
And some love stories are built on the same word that started everything:
Again.
