After seventeen years of chasing her skating dreams, Jasmine Santos thought she'd left her greatest rival—the infuriatingly talented and impossibly arrogant Ivan Lukov—in the rearview mirror. But when he offers her a partnership that could be her last shot at Olympic glory, she can't turn it down, even if the thought of spending that much time with him makes her want to scream. As they're forced to train together day in and day out, the ice-cold tension between them starts to thaw in ways neither of them expected, and Jasmine begins to wonder if their famous rivalry has been masking something far more complicated. This is a slow-burn romance about two fierce competitors discovering that sometimes your greatest enemy can become your greatest love story.

Indie pop and alternative R&B with a slow-burn intensity—think tension-filled glances and late-night training sessions. Moody vocals, driving beats, and that electric chemistry between two people who can't stay away. Intimate but defiant, building from cold to combustible.
