The Ice King Only Melts for Him

Micah, the 32-year-old "broken-bone veteran," shattered his ankle in the Olympic final six years ago and was expelled from the national team, training alone ever since under a hidden identity. Ash, a 21-year-old data obsessive, approaches him under the pretext of a graduation thesis, using a delayed-rehabilitation program to help him return to the ice. The two move from testing each other to fighting side by side, shattering head coach Karl's covert blockade from within the rules and completing humanity's first-ever quadruple Axel.
