Figure skater Jasmine needs a new partner. Ivan Lukov — the most talented and most infuriating person she knows — is available. They've hated each other for years. On the ice, they're magic. Off it, they're a slow-motion collision. The rink scenes alone are worth the read.
Low heat. The enemies dynamic and competitive tension carry this one, not steam.
