On the ice, perfection is everything - balance, grace, control.
For Alexandra "Lexi" Thompson, it's more than a dream - it's her identity.

Years of skating alone have shaped her into a focused, unstoppable force. But when Ryder, a bold and fearless newcomer, glides into her world, everything she thought she knew about skating - and herself - begins to shift.

As rivalry sparks and emotions collide, Lexi must learn that perfection isn't about never falling... it's about finding the strength to rise, no matter who's watching.

From shimmering arenas to moments of quiet vulnerability, The Perfect Glide is a heart-stirring tale of dreams, determination, teenage rivalry, and the unexpected warmth of love found on cold ice.

The Sweetest Deal by everlandwrites

Jane Caughill: Not a nobody, definitely not a somebody. From a young age Jane knew she was different. She could tell you how many boats were on Lake Mead or a random fact about giraffes if she wanted to. But the one question she can't answer is what she's going to do after college. Being undeniably smart had its pros: an early graduation and a bright future in the medical field. Though, it also had its cons: the constant nagging and reliance everybody had on her. But no matter what, she always found herself helping them. Here's the plan so far: graduate, land a high-paying job in the medical field, live a happy life, the end. But ever since Jane had stepped into that bakery back home as a child, she'd been hooked on the craft. But she's strapped for cash and the pre-med track sounds a whole lot more financially promising. All she needed to do for the next 3 years was keep her head down and work off her pending college loans. The last thing she thought she'd be doing was tutoring some jock. • • • • • • • • Aiden Parker: Definitely not a nobody, and most definitely a somebody. As a three year starter for one of the most prolific college hockey teams in the country he has it all going for him. The looks, the talent, the charm. But when it comes to the classroom he's quite literally failing. With the team nearing playoffs and a sweet chance at the title, Aiden needs to find a way to boost his grades or risk riding the bench. What he wasn't expecting was to be tutored by some chick who could give Einstein a run for his money. She could be a bit shy at times, a bit lost in her thoughts too, but she's exactly what he needs to keep his spot on the team. The two of them strike a deal: she tutors him, he pays her, and that's that. Developing feelings wasn't a part of the deal. But as his feelings fail to dissipate, he begins to realize that maybe winning a championship won't be the sweetest victory after all. Winning the girl is.

The Narwhals by yeoboon_

Madeleine "Maddie" Harper never imagined her life would unfold like a slow migration. After years of rejection, restlessness, and suffocating expectations, her long-awaited acceptance to NYU finally cracks open a world she thought would never belong to her. With her best friend Nate heading to Columbia, both carry their own weights-the fear of change, the ghosts of home, and the pressure to prove that leaving was worth it. Like a narwhal breaking through the Arctic ice, Maddie emerges into the unfamiliar waters of New York City-cold, vast, and breathtaking. Narwhals are known as the "unicorns of the sea," elusive and resilient, navigating through extreme environments with quiet grace. Much like them, Maddie learns to survive in the shifting tides of adulthood, adapting to pressures she doesn't fully understand yet, following instinct when direction fails. In her new life, Maddie finds unexpected warmth in friendship-especially in Anastasia "Anne" Elizabeth-Collins, her roommate from the Upper East Side. Anne's world is one of privilege and poise, polished in all the ways Maddie's never been. They clash at first, as opposite as deep sea and sunlight, but soon discover that both are just trying to stay afloat in their own ways. Through alternating perspectives, the story explores how two young women-one learning to belong, the other learning to break free-navigate love, loss, ambition, and identity in a city that demands everything. Together, Maddie and Anne's worlds intertwine like currents beneath the surface-sometimes turbulent, sometimes still-each helping the other find strength in their differences. And like narwhals that travel in small, loyal pods through freezing seas, they remind us that survival isn't about conquering the storm. It's about finding who swims beside you when the ice begins to crack. ⭐️Updated every Saturday and Sunday ⭐️Don't forget to like, comment, share, and stay tuned for the next chapter!

BOOK 1: She wants to be perfect. He needs to be in control. Neither of them knows how to let go. Darcie Sinclair has spent her whole life chasing perfection-on the ice, in the mirror, and in the eyes of a mother who just wants to see her succeed. As a sophomore at Columbia, she should be living the dream: a figure skater with upper-class connections and the perfect college experience. But when she looks in the mirror, all she sees is someone who isn't enough-never thin enough, never good enough, never perfect. Caiden Winter lives his life for one person: his father. As Columbia's star hockey player and a brilliant engineering student, he's built himself into the kind of son his father can parade around-disciplined, accomplished, untouchable. But behind the cold composure, Caiden is one wrong move away from shattering under the weight of expectations he can't escape. When a chance encounter between a perfectionist figure skater and a controlled, untouchable hockey player turns into something neither of them planned for, they find themselves drawn to each other in ways that feel dangerous-and freeing. But in a world of parties, privilege, and unspoken rules, love isn't as simple as falling. It's about losing control. It's about letting someone see you-every broken piece. Perfect on Ice is a steamy, emotional college romance about love, pressure, and the courage it takes to want something for yourself.
