emilyhei's review against another edition
4.0
Phillipa “Pippa” Baker has been to hell and back trying to carve a new life for herself. As an Olympian hopeful, Pippa was on the fast track, young, in love, talented, until an avalanche took it all away. A year later her former coaches relentless perusal to get her to return to downhill skiing has her giving it one last shot, before walking away for good, but everything about it reminds her why she loved the sport in the first place.
As If a new star wasn’t enough, Pippa forms an unusual friendship with Hunter Dawson, a snowboarder whose talent on the snow and off has earned him quite a reputation as a bad boy. Pippa sees past the image he portrays and a delicate relationship ensues, but both have a problem letting go of their past and outside influences are determined to tear them apart.
Excellent story, I thought there was a lot of realistic issues Pippa and Hunter faced. Both were not the best at communicating with one another in the sense of true feelings they had but they manage to fight their way back, when they need each other most. Would definitely read more from this talented author.
