About the Author Julie Cook writes about food and music—then remembers she’s writing a romance novel and cuts most of that out. 🍝🎶 A South Carolina native, she traded sunny Southern California for Rochester, New York (which, she quickly learned, is south of nothing but Canada). ❄️ She lives there with her husband, three kids, and dog, thriving in summer, surviving winter, and writing in the quiet hours before dawn. 🌅 Find her on Instagram and tell her your favorite Sandra Brown novel, sports documentary, New Yorker cartoon, or SNL sketch.
About the Book For fans of Tessa Bailey comes a steamy debut sports romance… 🔥⛷️
Olympic downhill skier Kit Schuster has dominated the slopes since she was two-and-a-half. 🏅 With a decade of titles, records, and grueling travel behind her, she keeps her eyes fixed forward—on the course and in life. But a younger rival is closing in fast. To cement her legacy before the 2026 Winter Games in Cortina, Italy, Kit makes a bold move: she’ll compete in the new Olympic event of ski mountaineering. She has less than a year to master it. 🏔️
Enter Asher McClendon—daring ski mountaineer, rock climber, and social-media thrill-seeker who grew up scaling Yosemite’s walls and now skis down some of the world’s most remote peaks. 🧗‍♂️ He agrees to coach the legend at his Lake Tahoe home mostly for the paycheck… until Kit arrives and moves into his guest cabin.
Far from groomed European pistes, Kit’s rigid routine collides with Asher’s high-risk training style and his tight-knit crew of climbers. Snowball fights, rock climbs, and stolen moments quickly melt her laser focus. ❄️❤️ As their chemistry ignites, everything in Kit’s carefully planned life veers off course. With the Games looming, both must decide what they’re willing to risk for love—even if it costs them their careers.
Come meet Julie Cook, grab a signed copy of this sizzling sports romance, and chat about books, skiing, or that perfect SNL sketch! 📖⛷️ Books will be available for purchase on site. We can’t wait to see you there! 🎉
