"You already are the person I want you to be. I see so much more in you that you won't allow yourself to see."
Lainey is on her way to her first and probably only Olympics. At twenty-two, she has finally made the U.S. Figure Skating Team after years of hard work and sacrifice. All she can think about is winning gold when she meets Cory, a gorgeous, hotshot Alpine skier and two-time Olympic champion who seems to be taking his talent for granted. 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?

Heal, Don't Fall in Love
Ellie Ryan lived for the ice. She was born a champion, and her only goal was to become the best figure skater in the world-to fulfill the promise she made to her father before he died. But a single moment shatters everything. During their final performance, a mistake by her partner, James, leaves Ellie with a devastating spinal injury. Now, her frozen arena is replaced by hospital corridors and the sterile walls of a rehabilitation center. As she battles physical pain and the betrayal of the person she trusted most, Ellie meets Nick-a strict, uncompromising physical therapist who doesn't believe in defeat and refuses to accept the word "impossible." At first, they clash. But little by little, something begins to grow between them-something deeper than the fragile trust between a patient and her therapist. Can Ellie rise again and chase the dream she once lived for, when it feels like everything has already been lost? And how do you stop yourself from falling for the one who's teaching you how to stand again? A story of resilience, spirit, passion, and unexpected love-born where it was never meant to be.
