Summary
What if the person who finally saw you wasn’t a lover, but the one person who understood your loneliness?
Maren Hollander has spent her life in the quiet shadow of her twin brother, Canada’s golden boy Shane Hollander. When she moves to Boston for Harvard and to chase her own dreams on the freestyle skiing circuit, she expects anonymity.
Instead, she meets Ilya Rozanov.
He’s everything she isn’t: loud, brilliant, reckless, adored. But beneath the swagger, Maren recognizes something familiar — the same bone‑deep loneliness she’s carried for years. And Ilya sees her too, in a way no one ever has.
What begins as banter in a sports bar becomes an unlikely, necessary friendship; one that gives Ilya someone to talk to about the one person he can’t stop thinking about: Shane.
As rivalry, identity, and family collide, Maren and Ilya become each other’s safe place. But when the two most important people in her life finally meet, the collision is inevitable; and nothing stays cold for long.
