24-year-old Penelope Featherington is in Los Angeles for a few months to work with a difficult author for her employer, Danbury Publishing. 26-year-old Colin Bridgerton has been living in LA for nearly four years, trying to make it as a singer and musician with the stage name CJ Bridges. Penelope dreams of being a published writer but doesn't feel her book is good enough yet and has never shown her poems to anyone. Colin dreams of being a rock star, but while he composes beautiful music, he has only ever written one complete song that he thought good enough - the song he wrote for Penelope years ago when he realized he was falling in love with her. Colin and Penelope have been living on the edge of the friend zone for several years. Could this time in the same city without the interference of the Bridgerton family get them to end game? This modern AU story will alternate chapters between Penelope's point of view (POV) and Colin's POV. Note that it is also published on Archive of Our Own under the name GentleWriter44.

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.
