Edge Closer. Nunipag Figure Skaters, #1

As Kathy Peterson finishes her last year of high school, her goals all revolve around her figure skating career in what could be her final season. She doesn't want to think about how the hyper-feminine expectations of skating, which she doesn't have the nerve to go against, are making her increasingly uncomfortable. And she certainly doesn't need the kind of distraction a relationship would bring.
Ava Choi, the new girl in town, doesn't seem like she should be distracting at all, even after Kathy is forced to take a class alongside her. She's so shy she barely speaks. She's the smart one between them. She does gymnastics, not skating, and she doesn't even compete. They have nothing in common... except for Ava's appreciation for skating. And Kathy's style in particular - which she praises for the same pretty and girly qualities Kathy is struggling with.
The more time they spend together, and the more Ava sees courage - something both of them feel they lack - in Kathy's performances, the more Kathy longs to make this the year when her skating finally feels like her own. But will Ava still like Kathy if she learns about the unfeminine version of Kathy that's been kept closed away?Edge Closer is a sweet, slow-burn, friends-to-lovers story about courage and being one's true self.
