The Favorites
批評家のレビュー
“A deliciously scathing, sexy novel . . . passionate, cutthroat, and irresistibly fun. You won’t be able to put it down.”—Julia Fine, author of Maddalena and the Dark
“If you have ever watched Olympic ice dancing teams and wondered if the chemistry between them persists when they’re not competing . . . well, have I got a book for you. Part Wuthering Heights and part Daisy Jones & The Six, this novel is as brilliantly choreographed as a gold medal performance and will keep you guessing until its last page.”—Jodi Picoult, New York Times bestselling author of Wish You Were Here and co-author of Mad Honey
“The Favorites is Tell Me Lies meets The Cutting Edge—a juicy, addictive look at an ice dancing pair whose obsession with winning is matched only by their obsession with each other. Fargo deftly reveals the sweat and blood coursing beneath the ice skating world’s glamorous façade, and in the process delivers a razor-sharp account of the thin line between performance and reality. I loved every word!”—Sara Sligar, author of Take Me Apart and Vantage Point
あらすじ・解説
To the world, they were a scandal. To each other, an obsession.
An epic love story set in the sparkling, savage sphere of elite figure skating starring a woman determined to carve her own path on and off the ice
She might not have a famous name, funding, or her family’s support, but Katarina Shaw has always known that she was destined to become an Olympic skater. When she meets Heath Rocha, a lonely kid stuck in the foster care system, their instant connection makes them a formidable duo on the ice. Clinging to skating—and each other—to escape their turbulent lives, Kat and Heath go from childhood sweethearts to champion ice dancers, captivating the world with their scorching chemistry, rebellious style, and roller-coaster relationship.
Until a shocking incident at the Olympic Games brings their partnership to a sudden end.
As the ten-year anniversary of their final skate approaches, an unauthorized documentary reignites the public obsession with Shaw and Rocha, claiming to uncover the “real story” through interviews with their closest friends and fiercest rivals. Kat wants nothing to do with the documentary, but she can’t stand the thought of someone else defining her legacy. So, after a decade of silence, she’s telling her story: from the childhood tragedies that created her all-consuming bond with Heath to the clash of desires that tore them apart. Sensational rumors have haunted their every step for years, but the truth may be even more shocking than the headlines.
