Skating on Thin Ice

The hockey setting adds a unique backdrop for romance and personal stakes. I wonder if the author has a personal connection to the sport or crafted it from research and imagination.

The tension and spark felt authentic, but I kept wondering if it was based on real experiences or pure fiction. How do writers create that natural connection between characters?

The story weaves between emotional intimacy and hockey scenes seamlessly. I'm curious whether this was a deliberate choice to appeal to both romance readers and sports fans.
