For the world, they were champions. For each other, they were everything.
Katarina Shaw has always known she was destined for greatness on the ice. When she meets Heath Rocha, a talented boy from the foster care system, their connection is instant. Together, they rise from humble beginnings to become one of the most celebrated ice dancing pairs in the world. But behind the glamour, fame, and gold medals lies a relationship filled with obsession, heartbreak, and secrets.
Ten years after a shocking event ended their partnership, a controversial documentary threatens to expose the truth about their rise and fall. Determined to reclaim her story, Katarina finally reveals what really happened between her and Heath—and the devastating choices that changed everything. (Goodreads)
Inspired by Wuthering Heights and told through interviews, media coverage, and personal accounts, The Favorites is an addictive, emotionally charged story about ambition, love, sacrifice, and the price of chasing greatness. (Wikipedia)
