On Thin Ice

Brought to you by Penguin. This sizzling, grumpy/sunshine forced proximity romance is perfect for fans of Icebreaker by Hannah Grace and Face Off by Chelsea Curto! They can't keep skating around their feelings... When disgraced Hollywood star Luca Vasvault is partnered with drama-averse professional skater Matilda Stevens on Stars on Ice , the pair get off to a less-than-smooth start. Matilda’s dazzling smile and generous spirit immediately set Luca on edge (surely no one can be that nice?) while Luca’s standoffish and brooding behaviour is making Matilda’s job unnecessarily difficult. Despite their tension behind the scenes, though, there’s no denying their chemistry on the ice. And since Matilda and Luca both need to win for their own reasons, they strike a deal: they’ll work together, playing up their “showmance”, to win the public’s love and better their chances of winning the competition. After all, they’re both performers for a living. How hard can it be to pretend their feelings are real? © Olivia Belle 2026 (P) Penguin Audio 2026
