Publisher's Summary

Passion and patriotism sizzle on the ice at the Winter Olympics.

It's been a dozen years since two of the world's best women hockey players, Niki Hartling and Eva Caruso, first competed against each other in the Olympic Games.

The pressure of the intense USA-Canada rivalry forced an end to their love affair, and both women moved on - Niki to coach and to marry, Eva to stretch out a playing career that her ravaged body can barely sustain anymore.

The Games are upon them once again. Eva wants one last chance to beat the Canadians and win hockey's biggest prize. Niki, now a widow and single mother, strives to coach her country to gold, even as the obstacles against her mount. The locker room seems to have ears, and there are few people Niki and Eva can trust.

Rivals and former lovers on hockey's biggest stage, will Niki and Eva feel the same spark that first brought them together? And can they win on - and off - the ice with the whole world watching?

Gold!

Sport backgrounds aren’t usually my favourites but this book is an exception. Really enjoyed it and was invested in the characters. Well written and worth the read/listen. And talking about listening… Another exceptionally good narration by Anastasia Watley, a favourite of mine.

So Good

I not only enjoyed the story, but found the reading by Anastasia Watley to be exceptional. As I live in a country that does not have ice hockey as a national sport I was intrigued by nuances of the game and the politics behind the game.
