Summary
“You have to learn to pace yourself, pressure. You're just like everybody else, pressure. You've only had to run so far, so good. But you will come to a place where you'll have to deal with pressure.”
Shane Hollander retired at forty on his own terms—captain, champion, certain he understood what pressure meant. He didn’t, not like this.
Now Max is sixteen, chasing perfection on the figure skating ice, every performance measured against a legacy he never asked for. Mei is fourteen, fierce and gifted, but the expectations wrapped around her name are beginning to feel like walls instead of support.
The world doesn’t see two teenagers finding their way. It sees the children of legends.
As competition intensifies and the spotlight grows harsher, the Hollanders must learn a different kind of strength: how to guide without controlling, how to support without overwhelming, and how to let their children define themselves beyond the name they share.
Because pressure isn’t about living up to the past, it’s about deciding who you are despite it.
