Ice and Shadows

She's the figure skater. He's the hockey player. And the only thing more dangerous than falling for each other are the secrets buried beneath the ice. Welcome to Valcérre. An elite university in the middle of the snowy mountains with the best hockey and figure skating programs in the world, and secrets no one talks about. Luna Del Sol is the new figure skater trying to prove she belongs. As a Black Latina, she's used to pressure. To skate like she has something to prove. She didn't come here to get distracted, but she wasn't ready for Valcérre's broody hockey star. Zayden Aldenhurst is the coach's son, a legacy hockey star, and the only Black player on the team. Everyone thinks he has it all, but he's just good at pretending. Until Luna walks in and reminds him of the things he tried to bury, and everything he shouldn't want. They're supposed to hate each other until an anonymous message leads them to a hidden rink tied to a student who died five years ago. No matter how hard they try to stay away, they are drawn back together like magnets. And the closer they get, the thinner the ice beneath them becomes. One crack, and everything could shatter.
