Samira 'Ira' Bitar is a 19-year-old trying to find her way through medical studies, being a baby figure skater at an ultra-competitive rink while also trying to step out of her brother's perfect hockey player shadow without being the family's total failure.
On the other side of the rink - and usually the Atlantic too - is pro athlete team USA reject Kai Xu, at 22 and far from home Kai has always kept away from the locals, too focused on fixing the mistakes of two years ago.
When Ira meets Kai properly during a coffee-filled study session at an overpriced cafe, nothing really happens ... until it does, and suddenly Kai's attention is less on skating and more on the short black-haired beauty hiding near the barriers; and when Ira's journal is forgotten after practice, Kai realises ira might be as shy as she first thought and Ira might just be falling for someone in a different league all together. In more ways than one.

Flying with you
Liam Carter has learned not to trust anyone-except himself. After a difficult childhood and a rocky start in life, he has fought his way to where he is today. When he unexpectedly gets the chance to work with one of the country's best figure skaters, he knows that this is his only chance to give his life a new direction. His training partner? Trent Walker. Multiple champion, ambitious, disciplined-and from a world that couldn't be more different from Liam's. Trent seems to lead the perfect life, but behind the flawless façade, a storm is brewing that hardly anyone sees. His biggest battle isn't on the ice-it's against his own father, who can't accept his decisions. What starts as pure training quickly develops into something more. Trust, closeness, desire. But while Liam is afraid to open up, Trent is fighting his own feelings. On the ice, they are perfectly in sync-but can they be in real life? And while Liam and Trent have to prove themselves on and off the ice, a historic decision by the ISU changes the entire sport-and opens up an opportunity for them that never existed before.Complete
Teach Me Not to Fall
Eva Graham is a guarded, no-nonsense social science major who studies human behavior to understand why people leave-and how to make sure she never lets the wrong ones in. She keeps to herself, avoids drama, and especially avoids campus athletes, whom she considers walking red flags. Cole Grayson is a third-year psychology major, a cocky ice hockey star with a grin that disarms and a fanbase full of puck bunnies. While everyone sees him coasting, Cole's under constant pressure-trying to go pro, balancing school, and keeping up a charming front to hide just how much he's cracking underneath. When Cole starts slipping in class, he's assigned a tutor: Eva. Neither is thrilled. She thinks he's a loud, lazy distraction. He calls her "Teach" just to get under her skin-she responds by calling him "Skates," with just the right amount of disdain. What begins as bickering soon turns into banter... then something softer. The nicknames stick, becoming a quiet thread that ties them together as friends-and maybe more. Cole falls first. Hard. Eva, scared of being hurt and shaped by people who've left before, fights it. Still, she agrees to go to one of his games-just once. But seeing him on the ice, in his world, adored yet somehow still alone, shifts everything. Then the bet surfaces. A stupid, careless thing made before he really knew her-and it threatens to destroy everything they've built. Surrounded by puck bunnies stirring drama, teammates with their own loyalties, and a past Eva isn't ready to share, the fragile trust between them begins to crack. Between jealousy, late-night confessions, and moments where one look says everything, Eva and Cole must decide: is love worth risking it all-even if it started with a bet, a nickname, and everything going wrong?Complete

Sasha Belrose doesn't date hockey players. Not after what happened last time. As the coach's daughter, she's grown up around the rink, watching the game she loves be played by boys she can't trust. She keeps her head down, helps coach the little league, and makes sure her rules stay unbroken. Then Beckett Reid transfers in. Six-foot-something, cocky grin, golden hair, and a habit of finding her in every room. He's reckless on the ice, infuriating off of it, and obsessed with getting past her walls. When her dad forces them to co-coach the little league team, she's trapped in shared space with the one player she swore she'd avoid. And the worst part? Beckett doesn't just get under her skin - he makes her laugh, makes her feel seen, and makes her forget every reason she told herself to stay away. But Sasha knows what happens when she lets someone in. Beckett knows he's not going to stop until she does. And with every practice, every stolen glance, and every rule she's tempted to break, the ice between them gets thinner. And thinner. And thinner...
