This is one of those longing from afar second chance stories that doesn’t have a ton a baggage. It has a great story merging the MMA world and figure skating. When Travis asks Tatiana to PRETEND IT’S REAL, FOR ME, he’s not only bringing them back together at a crucial point in his career, but he is breaking their long standing ruse to pretend they don’t know one another whenever they meet.
Because Travis’ sister is Tatiana’s skating rival and (later) best friend. She can’t avoid him entirely. It’s the best kind of love story because there is only one way it can end up.
The story jumps back and forth between past and present - not my favorite format. Whitney G does this in a way that reveals the layers of Travis and Tatiana’s relationship struggles.
