A backdrop of snow tipped aspens, a frozen lake, and a slender dancer glides on blades of silver; the scene is set. The figure, a young woman of nineteen, is oblivious to reality. Her mind is quiet, never blank, but at peace. Her past is full of regrets, but her present is accepted. Little does she know that her future is set upon a path that will forever alter another's, a stranger she has never met, but will come to know as intimately as her own heartbeat.
A continent away, a figure stands alone on a stage of ice, his thoughts unable to be silenced by the hundreds of cheers surrounding him, thousands more applauding from all corners of the world. A smile is present, but far from true. Within him, he feels nothing; his victory is an illusion. His heart as lifeless as the medallion of gold that is hung around his neck. Little does he know that, thousands of miles away, his salvation also dances in silence.

His bad behavior is getting him in trouble with everyone around him, including Lainey. No love is lost between Lainey and Cory until the night Cory comes to Lainey's rescue. She soon realizes that his reckless behavior may be related to something painful from his past and that she actually needs to rescue him before he self-destructs. Can Lainey help Cory battle his demons so he can rebuild his future as an elite skier and, in turn, can Cory help Lainey execute a gold medal-winning performance? And will their support to each other lead them down a path to long-lasting love?
