This novel is a beautifully written love story that will make your heart sing—it manages to capture all the feelings we experience when watching the Olympics. 

We follow Zeke and Olivia on their adventure as fate keeps placing them in each other's way throughout the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. Even if the two characters have amazing connection, this book's genius goes beyond its romantic elements. Just as captivating is Zeke and Olivia's character growth apart from their romance. They both want to challenge themselves, follow their passions, and learn more about who they are.
