Worlds Collide (Dream's Edge series Book 3) by Traci Hunter Abramson suspense romance. The story requires a little suspension of belief because the 84 Olympics took place in Sarajevo not Leningrad. However, Leningrad works for the story. It was a struggle for me because my favorite Olympic performance of all time was Torvill and Dean's ice dancing to Bolero. THA didn't cover the ice dancing at all but the pairs skating, which I don't remember. (Scott Hamilton won the men's ice skating. He's another favorite.) If you don't know the history or are easily able to put it aside for the story, you won't have the difficulty I did. It's a satisfying read once I was able to accept that THA stays true to the fiction. Yes, I bought it in paperback to keep. The book is worth reading. For those who are curious, here's the Olympic's video of Torvill and Dean: https://youtu.be/KNCSij0hUp8 It still takes my breath away.
