He’s on edge while she’s en pointe in this fake-dating sports romance from the author of TikTok smash hit Collide.

Spiral follows Elias Westbrook, a newly drafted hockey player for the Toronto Thunder, who is facing the challenges of fame and media scrutiny. With a growing fanbase and too many expectations on his shoulders, he’s struggling to score his first goal. The tabloids are reporting his every move, including which woman he was last seen with, and all he wants to do is escape the spotlight.

Enter from stage left Sage Beaumont, an aspiring ballerina with dreams of joining the American Ballet Theatre. However, her lack of popularity online leaves her at a major disadvantage for securing the lead role. When Sage finds herself with the perfect opportunity to make her dreams come true by fake dating Elias, she takes her shot.

Soon enough, the flimsy fake-dating rules they set in place fall away in the face of their sizzling connection. But before things spiral out of control, they’ll have to decide if they’re willing to take the leap together or call it quits.

Look out for other books in the Off the Ice series: Collide is out now.

About the Author

Bal is a Canadian writer, romance enthusiast, and book lover. Before she decided to jump into the romance pool, she spent her time gushing about books on social media. When inspiration strikes, she is found filling her notes app with ideas for romance novels. Like many of her characters, Bal has been woven into the fabric of two cultures and finds herself creating characters that represent the beauty of both. Whether it's through language, a box of her favorite sweets, or a cup of chai, we can find hints of her South Asian roots throughout her writing. She loves reading about love, watching movies about love, and now, writing about it herself. There really isn’t much else that gets her heart fluttering the way HEAs do. She fell in love with writing and hopes to continue living out her romance author dreams.
