Summary

If someone were to ask Jasmine Santos to describe the last few years of her life with a single word, it would definitely be a four-letter one. After 17 years - and countless broken bones and broken promises - she knows her window to compete in figure skating is coming to a close.

But when the offer of a lifetime comes in from an arrogant idiot she's spent the last decade dreaming about pushing in the way of a moving bus, Jasmine might have to reconsider everything. Including Ivan Lukov.

Delightful slow burn

MZ is the Queen of the slow burn, a trope I’m not usually a fan of. However she does it so well it seems to work every time.

Jasmine is a whirling dervish of determination, guts, heart and strength. Shes prickly, snarky and bolshi, but I love her as a character. On the surface she doesn’t take anything from anyone, but underneath she has huge insecurities not least of which is her perceived lack of success in her chosen sport. Ivan is arrogant and cocky, knows his worth, has had huge amounts of success but somehow seems more lonely than Jasmine. They become professional partners on the ice, despite “hating” each other, and this slowly leads to more off the ice. There’s a crazy mad family and a number of four legged friends along the way, and at times it’s comical, at times sweet and sometimes frustrating. It’s a great listen though.

The narration was a bit odd, told from the female perspective the whole way through with the male narrator chipping in his lines, so not the truest duet, but it seemed to work. Both narrators did a really great job, and I just love Teddy Hamilton in this sort of role.

Well worth a credit.

OMG!!! The Best Story

This book has blown my mind. I think is one of the best stories out there. After reading this book I feel like I can do anything. I love the way is written and the way the author captures the struggles that a person have in life when trying to fight for her/his dream. When disabilities sometimes make us stronger and better when we fight hard to overcome them and that is what take us apart from others that are lucky to have all their faculties. This book reminded me how important is to fight for what makes us tick and passionate. It reminded me of the importance of always standing up after a fall and keep trying no matter what. Thank you Mariana Zapata, you made me cry so much with this book and made me feel so warm inside. Excellent work!!!

Freaking love this so hard.

Once again Mariana had done a beautiful job at writing another amazing story. I can't wait to see what she has no store for her readers next. This book is amazing, the story the Chemistry between Jasmine and Ivan was beautiful and Callie and Teddy did an amazing job at Narrating it.

Ending is too rushed.

Great story!!! However the slow burn relationship doesn’t even kick in until literally the last 3 chapters, and the whole book ends with an abrupt time skip 10 years forward. Made the entire work seem way too rushed which is a shame because I loved the characters. Would also have loved a POV from Ivan, but I understand why there isn’t.

One of my favourites!

I've just listened to this for the second time and it hit me in the feels, just like the first time I read the ebook.

It was funny, emotional, and exhilarating. I loved how the author really understood what it took to be a top elite athlete - all the sacrifices you make in order to succeed. I loved watching Jasmine and Ivan's relationship grow. His devotion to her made me swoon hard! The narration was spot on as usual from the amazing Callie Dalton as Jasmine, and I loved the addition of Teddy Hamilton speaking all of of Ivan's parts. Just brilliant and still remains one of my Top Reads.

Perfect

Fantastic playing off between the two voices. Jasmine is my all time favourite. She was brought to life amazingly by Callie.
