On Thin Ice

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?

Reseñas de la Crítica

Romantic, spicy and laugh out loud funny. Olivia perfectly blends the glam of showbiz with emotional vulnerability. You don’t want to miss this one!

A fresh take on sports romance with heart, humor, and a heroine you’ll root for. . . This one's for the tender-hearted people pleasers!

Tender, captivating and sexy . . . A debut that bursts onto the scene with an agonisingly delicious slowburn, and charismatic characters you root for at the top of your lungs!

Believable chemistry, loveable characters and tension you could cut with a knife, On Thin Ice is a sparkling opposites-attract romance that had me hooked from the first page.

On Thin Ice sticks the landing with Luca as the perfect grump and Matilda’s sunshine charm. Their chemistry glides from soft to scorching, all within an unique plot that feels boldly empowering. A fire-and-ice romance that left me wanting the story to never end.
