First a HUGE apology that this is late.  Evidently when the DSL lines when down in our county, they went down for the whole county... and I live out in the sticks... we are talking can't even send an email from my phone! So....I love, love, love sporty stories! I don't know if it is because I grew up such a tomboy, or what, but start talking sports, and I am in.  So when I read about skiing and snowboarding, I though, I must read this book.And I gotta tell you, it did not disappoint!As I was reading Pippa's story, my heart was breaking... see, she lost her will to compete when her boyfriend and best friend died in a freak skiing accident a year ago.  Then her coach shows up and bullies her into competing.  On the flight to her first competition (the one that she really isn't sure she even wants to do!) She meets Hunter.  He is gorgeous, talented, and a complete jerk. Suddenly Pippa is faced with a set of feelings that she doesn't know how to deal with, is it cheating on her dead boyfriend to like Hunter?Audrey Bell wrote an AMAZING story and such great characters! I adored Pippa and Hunter seemed like the kind of boy that every girl falls in love with (and ever mom warns her daughters to stay away from!) Getting back up on the skis wasn't easy for Pippa, but once she did, great things started happening for her!
