Gold Medal Winter

After years of early morning training and more jumps than she can
count, Esperanza’s dream of figure skating at the Olympic is coming
true at last! But with the excitement of an Olympic slot comes
new attention – and BIG distractions. Suddenly Espi can’t go out
with her friends, or even out her back door, without reporters
and autograph-seekers following her every move. Her new teammates
have a lot more international experience, and they let Espi know
that they don’t think she’s ready. Hunter Wills, the men’s figure
skating champion, seems to be flirting with her, even as the press
matches her up with Danny Morrison, the youngest – and maybe
cutest – member of the U.S. hockey team. In the midst of all this,
Espi is trying to master an impossible secret jump that just might
be her key to a medal. Can she focus enough to shut out the drama,
find her edge over the competition, and make the Olympics as
golden as her dreams?
