Hearts of Gold by David Horne

How far will one man go to realize his golden dreams? Is being champion worth hurting the one he loves? Or will love come in first place? Daniel Garcia is more than a figure skater. He’s a champion. He’s also the bad boy of the figure skating world. The American has his eyes on the prize as the Olympics approach. He wants gold, and he will do anything he has to do to get it.

Dmitri Rostov is the Russian champion, and Daniel’s chief competitor. Dmitri has every reason to be mistrustful of the American’s motives. When he moves to America to train with Daniel’s coach, the American decides that the way to screw with a rival’s head is through his heart. If seducing Dmitri is what it takes to knock the Russian off his game, so be it. All’s fair in love and skating.

When the plan takes shape, the one knocked sideways might be Daniel, because the closer they are, the more sparks start to fly. Soon things are hot enough to melt the ice, and Daniel doesn’t know if he’s playing anymore. Is it just a summer fling, or something more serious? And how far is Daniel willing to go in the name of Olympic gold?
