Emily's skating career and personal life have never been more golden. She and her partner Chris have won every competition they've entered this season, and she's found the man of her dreams in her coach Sergei. But when one of the biggest competitions of the year takes Emily and Sergei to Russia, Sergei's past explodes into the present and makes Emily doubt everything in their future.
Excerpt
Sergei pressed me up into the star
lift, and I noticed some of the other skaters idling and watching us. We sped
past them, and Sergei set me down, preparing for the closing seconds of the
program.
In time with the final piano notes, I
edged away from Sergei, and he rushed toward me, trapping me in his arms for
the ending pose. I gasped at the passion with which he grabbed me. His eyes
held my gaze then slowly drifted down to my mouth, and my body hummed from the
fiery energy between us. I leaned into his chest and squeezed my fingers harder
around his biceps.
A few of my training mates erupted
with applause and whistles, and Sergei jerked backward. He didn’t say anything
as he took off to cool down, leaving me alone in the middle of the ice with
more than my muscles burning.
