Blades Between Us
Laney Kensington lives on ice - both literally and emotionally. A fierce, ambitious figure skater with her eyes locked on the Olympics, she's trained to shut out distractions, swallow pain, and hide behind the name "Laney" so no one gets close enough to discover the real girl: Evangeline Rosalie Kensington. Preston Hale is everything she hates. A hockey player. Loud, cocky, too confident for his own good. He lives for chaos, adrenaline, and skating fast enough to outrun everything - including feelings. When they're forced to share ice time at the same training rink, it's war. Verbal jabs, glares at the Zamboni, and a mutual vow to never mix blades. But beneath the bruises and banter, something starts to shift. Because sometimes enemies are just mirrors in sharper light. And sometimes the people we're supposed to hate... are the ones who understand us best. This is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romance about falling hard, growing up, chasing the impossible - and learning to love yourself as much as someone else. No smut. Just longing, figure eights, and fire under frozen skin. BOOK NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❄️❄️❄️ #22 in enemies to lovers #2 in brokenbutbeautiful #1 in town #1 in figureskatingComplete
