Growing up as the daughter of legendary ballerina Hazel Summers and former college hockey star Dean Di Laurentis was never going to be easy. Everyone already knows her story. The graceful daughter of the White Swan. The coach's kid. The girl destined to choose between ballet and hockey. The only problem? She doesn't want either. Instead, sixteen-year-old Emilia Di Laurentis finds herself drawn to the one place where both worlds collide-figure skating. On the ice, she finally feels like herself. But chasing her own dream means living beneath the weight of her parents' legacy, the expectations of everyone around her, and the fear that she'll never be enough on her own. When a cocky hockey captain with an infuriating grin turns every practice into a battle for rink time, Emilia is certain they'll never get along. Yet beneath the rivalry lies an unexpected friendship that slowly becomes something neither of them saw coming. As old memories resurface and new dreams begin to take shape, Emilia must discover that the greatest performance isn't becoming the next Hazel Summers or the next Dean Di Laurentis... It's becoming herself. Because sometimes the hardest place to find your own path... is between the ice and the stage. A White Feathers and Hockey Sticks Novel.

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.
