ice princess

Everyone knows Ayami Raine as the Ice Princess. Olympic silver medallist, now a two-time World Champion- she's the girl who never cracks under pressure. At 18, Aya has spent her whole life becoming perfect, but after the biggest win of her career leaves her feeling emptier than ever, she starts college desperate for a version of herself that isn't defined by medals, headlines, and whatever the world expects from her.

Julia Duvall is everything Aya is not: loud, impulsive, expressive, and frustratingly good at seeing through people- including Aya. They are fierce rivals, having spent years trying to beat each other in competitions. She's the last person Aya wants beside her at her new training rink.

But the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to tell the difference between rivalry and attraction. Every argument is too charged. Every glance lasts too long. And for the first time in years, Aya wants something she cannot control.

As rumours spread, competitions intensify, and Aya's carefully built image begins to fracture, she must decide what she is willing to risk for the girl who makes her feel seen. Because they can't fall for each other when both their reputations, careers, and whole identities are on the line. But they do it anyway.
