Off-Limits on Ice

She was never "the right size" for figure skating-at least, that's what her dad has always believed. No matter how hard she works, no matter how beautifully she moves on the ice, the doubt follows her like a shadow... and it gets louder every time someone suggests she should take up less space.

He's the last person she should want: her brother's best friend. The bad boy hockey star with a reputation for trouble, fights, and headlines. He's loyalty and chaos wrapped in the same body-dangerous to fall for, impossible to ignore. And the closer he gets, the harder it becomes to pretend she doesn't feel it too.

But when pressure turns into obsession and control starts to look like survival, she begins fighting a silent battle off the ice-one that threatens everything she's worked for, including herself. Between the sport that judges her, the father who doesn't believe in her, and the love she was never supposed to touch... she'll have to decide what matters more: being accepted, or being free.
