A TikTok sensation! Sparks fly when a competitive figure skater and hockey team captain are forced to share a rink.

Anastasia Allen has worked her entire life for a shot at Team USA. It looks like everything is going according to plan when she gets a full scholarship to the University of California, Maple Hills and lands a place on their competitive figure skating team.

Nothing will stand in her way, not even the captain of the hockey team, Nate Hawkins.

Nate’s focus as team captain is on keeping his team on the ice. Which is tricky when a facilities mishap means they are forced to share a rink with the figure skating team—including Anastasia, who clearly can’t stand him.

But when Anastasia’s skating partner faces an uncertain future, she may have to look to Nate to take her shot.

Sparks fly, but Anastasia isn’t worried…because she could never like a hockey player, right?

Ratings and reviews

I ended up buying the book at the store and I read it ALL on the day I bought it (which was 2 days ago). I was hooked from the very first sentence and it's amazing. The characters are so thought out and well written. My most favorite book, that I have read in a long time.

Story just drags on. The enemies to lovers trope was great but that only went for so long. After that the plot just mellows and for 200 pages your kind of wondering what's supposed to happen now, what's the point of the story. Love cliches and sterotypical dialogue but some of the characters dialogue just makes you cringe.

I loved this book! I heard about it through Tictok and I immediately felt intrigued. Once I started reading I didn't want to put it down. This(so far) is the spiciest book I've ever read. I really hope I can find myself a Nate one day! I definitely would recommend this book for anyone who likes spice, drama, and romance.
