Quinn Taylor has made a career out of looking calm.
On the ice, she's America's favorite kind of pressure-proof-bright smile, steady answers, the skater everyone wants to root for. Off the ice, she's an only child with a perfectionist's brain and a habit of carrying too much alone. The cameras love her. The country expects her. And the one place she can't afford to fall apart is the one place she's dreamed of since she was little.
The Olympics.
Macklin Celebrini has always made things feel lighter.
He was the new kid at a Northern California rink at twelve-Canadian, polite, a little lost-until Quinn decided he was hers to keep. He became her best friend in the cold air and early mornings, the person who could make her laugh mid-breakdown and never ask her to perform for him. Then life did what life does: seasons changed, schedules got brutal, distance widened, and the kind of friendship that felt unbreakable turned into occasional texts and quiet missing.
Now they're both back where the world is loudest.
At the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, Quinn is chasing the skate of her life for Team USA. Mack is carrying his own weight for Team Canada hockey. When reporters find out they grew up together, the story writes itself-childhood friends reunited, smiles caught on camera, a thousand strangers deciding what they are to each other.
The only problem is... the strangers aren't entirely wrong.
Between past chapters at a small California rink and present days in the Olympic Village, Quinn and Mack have to figure out what they really meant to each other then-and what they're allowed to be now, with medals on the line and the whole world watching. Because it's one thing to love someone quietly from a distance.
It's another to have them show up in your life again and make everything feel possible.

They're not friends. They're not enemies either. Just two people who keep crossing paths - until staying out of each other's orbit becomes harder than either of them expected. A slow-burn college hockey romance about pressure, timing, and learning to let someone in.

wake me up- connor bedard
teammate's sister secret relationship dark past dual pov instagram + real life Olivia Knight has already built a life in Chicago by the time her brother is traded to the Blackhawks. At twenty-three, she's disciplined, private, and deeply focused on her law school internship-someone who keeps her world small because it feels safer that way, despite the constant stream of word vomit swarming in her head. When Spencer moves in, the life she's carefully controlled begins to expand whether she wants it to or not. Connor Bedard is part of that expansion. Younger, sharp, and disarmingly open, he notices the things Olivia doesn't volunteer-the way she avoids certain questions, the tension she carries, the boundaries she never explains. What starts as shared space and quiet conversations turns into something slower, built on trust rather than urgency.
