An Ilia Malinin Story...
Aspen Jones is America's biggest pop star, invited to perform at the Winter Olympics. Just another flawless moment in her carefully controlled career.
Until she sees the person she tried to forget. The guy she can't get out of her head, even after 2 years of not seeing him. Ilia Malinin.
Once, they were something undefined. Late nights, almost-love, and feelings neither of them dared to name. Now, he's chasing Olympic gold, and she's trapped in the pressure of perfection, but being this close again brings everything back.
What starts as avoidance turns into stolen moments, lingering tension, and a connection neither of them ever really let go of.
Because this time, falling for each other isn't simple.
It could cost them everything.
