Two lives shattered by one mistake. Two hearts finding a new way to glide.
Seventeen-year-old Kai Calloway is most at home in the water. In the pools of Boulder, Colorado, he isn't the boy in the wheelchair-he's an athlete, a competitor, and a son to the tight-knit Australian family that has shielded him since the accident that changed everything. At fifteen months old, Kai lost his father to prison and the use of his legs to a split-second of road rage. He doesn't remember the crash; he only knows the love of his single mum, Rhiannon, and his devoted grandparents, Gramps and Gigi.
Brielle Hathaway lives her life on a different kind of blue: the ice. A competitive figure skater, she carries the invisible scars of the same night that defined Kai's life-the night her parents were killed and she was left an orphan.
When a chance meeting at the sports complex brings them together, an unexpected friendship forms. But the peace they've built is threatened when Kai's father, Jake Russo, is released from prison, seeking a redemption that Rhiannon isn't sure he deserves.
As the truth of their shared history bubbles to the surface, Brielle offers Kai a different perspective-stepping away from the safety of the pool and onto the ice. In a world of frozen edges and deep-seated secrets, Kai must decide if he can forgive the man who broke his world, while Brielle learns that sometimes, the only way to move forward is to let someone else lead the way.
