𝐆𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 ❝A date?❞ Lyla asked, her voice faltering before she could control it. This wasn't supposed to happen. Michael nodded, almost shyly at first, his gaze dropping for a moment before finding hers again. ❝Is there something wrong with that?❞ he asked softly. Lyla's stomach tightened. There was something wrong with it. Not to him. To her. »»----- ♡ -----«« Michael Jackson is used to being watched, protected, and never truly known. Lyla is assigned to his security staff, but nothing about her is what it seems. It starts as a job. Rules. Distance. Control. However, Michael doesn't stay distant, he starts noticing her, trusting her, and relying on her in ways he never planned to, and without realizing it, he's falling for her... hard. Lyla sees it happening, and it terrifies her, because he doesn't know the truth: she's an undercover bodyguard sent to protect him from a dangerous stalker. She was never supposed to matter to him at all. The closer Michael gets, the harder it becomes for Lyla to keep her secret, or her heart out of it, and she doesn't realize that protecting Michael might also mean trying to protect her own heart. »»----- ♡ -----«« Book cover made by @gryffnclw

Quinn Taylor has made a career out of looking calm. On the ice, she's America's favorite kind of pressure-proof-bright smile, steady answers, the skater everyone wants to root for. Off the ice, she's an only child with a perfectionist's brain and a habit of carrying too much alone. The cameras love her. The country expects her. And the one place she can't afford to fall apart is the one place she's dreamed of since she was little. The Olympics. Macklin Celebrini has always made things feel lighter. He was the new kid at a Northern California rink at twelve-Canadian, polite, a little lost-until Quinn decided he was hers to keep. He became her best friend in the cold air and early mornings, the person who could make her laugh mid-breakdown and never ask her to perform for him. Then life did what life does: seasons changed, schedules got brutal, distance widened, and the kind of friendship that felt unbreakable turned into occasional texts and quiet missing. Now they're both back where the world is loudest. At the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, Quinn is chasing the skate of her life for Team USA. Mack is carrying his own weight for Team Canada hockey. When reporters find out they grew up together, the story writes itself-childhood friends reunited, smiles caught on camera, a thousand strangers deciding what they are to each other. The only problem is... the strangers aren't entirely wrong. Between past chapters at a small California rink and present days in the Olympic Village, Quinn and Mack have to figure out what they really meant to each other then-and what they're allowed to be now, with medals on the line and the whole world watching. Because it's one thing to love someone quietly from a distance. It's another to have them show up in your life again and make everything feel possible.
