Sophia Brooks has been skating since she could walk, and she loved it-the feeling of dancing and gliding across the ice, the sense of freedom it brought her. She loved the cold she felt on her skin, and the freedom and joy it gave her.
She always skated alone, unlike her brother, Mateo, who always skated with a partner and won numerous titles and gold medals. But when he was sixteen, he had a painful fall and was paralyzed. He's now in a wheelchair and will never be able to skate again. Since then, Sophia has felt a great deal of pressure on her to live up to her brother and the name he made for himself. Everywhere she goes, she's compared to him, and Sophia has just about had it. She loves her brother, but she's tired of people pitting them against each other and comparing them.
When she joins Russo Rink, one of the most famous ice skaters to ever skate there, everything changes and she feels like she can breathe again and be herself and a blond boy, with a big attitude, might have something to do with that.
