A lifetime ago, Maggie Alexander’s parents narrowly missed medaling in the Olympics as pairs figure skaters. Now a coach, her father Gordon is living his dreams through the skaters he trains—until Maggie is forced to deliver heartbreaking news: her mother’s battle against cancer will be a losing one. Shattered, her father loses his dreams in an instant—his beloved wife and his will to coach. Left to pick up the pieces, a devastated Maggie finds herself relying on the steadfast support of her childhood best friend, Lance Whitmore.
Despite the fact that Maggie has never seen Lance as more than a friend, his heart has always been hers. Lance does what he can to help Maggie work through her grief, and soon their friendship blossoms into love. But when distance threatens their relationship, Maggie is torn between building a life with the man she loves and helping her broken father rebuild his life.
Review:
Another great installment in the Dream's Edge series! Not only is it an enjoyable read, but we get to meet the Whitmore family too!
I will admit, I spent most of the story trying to figure out how Maggie and Lance fit into the previous books in the Dream's Edge series. It wasn't until the end that it hit me. I kinda feel like I should have figured that one out much sooner than I did.
I really liked Lance. Maggie too, but Lance was just the perfect boy-next-door character. Plus, he's a Whitmore, and they seem to be the best kind of people out there.
There is a lot of heartbreak and grief in this story, but the reader gets to see how each character works through it (or doesn't.) It's not all rainbows and unicorns, life can be HARD, and this story shows the struggles of moving on after hard things happen.
