The Ice Between Us
After a devastating fall shattered her career and confidence, figure skater Lena Hart returns to her hometown of Silver Ridge to heal. But the ice that once felt like freedom now feels like fear every attempt to skate ends in panic, every memory drags her back to the moment she fell.
Her coach believes she can find her way again, starting small, a frozen pond, quiet mornings, baby steps. But Silver Ridge holds more than memories. It holds Evan, the hockey star she once loved and lost, the boy who watched her fall long before the world did.
Now, as winter closes in, Lena must face the ice, her past, and the man who never stopped believing in her. Can she learn to trust herself, and him, before the ice between them melts for good?
A story of healing, second chances, and love that refuses to stay frozen, *The Ice Between Us* will break your heart and warm it all at once.

The guys all wince like I’m walking into a firing squad. Mason mutters, “Good luck, dude,” under his breath.
