Summary

"You ever put your arms out and spin really fast? That’s what love feels like—dizzying, electric, beautiful. But if you don’t fix your eyes on something steady, you lose your balance. You fall. And sometimes, you take others down with you." To the outside world, Kennedy Dawson is flawless. The golden girl of figure skating. The perfect daughter. The one who still smiles, even after her brother’s suicide fractured everything she knew. But behind the medal-winning routines and carefully painted grace is a girl barely holding it together—haunted by grief, crushed by expectation, and terrified of becoming the next one to break. When Dakota Evans returns after a scandal that sent him skating off the radar, he’s looking for a second chance—and a partner. Kennedy is his best shot. But pairing up comes with rules. No relationships. No distractions. No falling—on the ice or for each other. What begins as a promise of focus spirals into something far more dangerous as buried pain resurfaces, secrets unravel, and the line between partnership and something deeper blurs. With the biggest competition of their careers on the line, Kennedy and Dakota must decide what they’re really fighting for—the routine everyone expects, or the messy, imperfect truth that just might set them free. For fans of Spinning Out, this is a story about perfection, pressure, and the price of staying silent. And what it takes to finally let go.
