The Favorites by Layne Fargo

Teen Kat Shaw has loved Heath Rocha, the foster child her father adopted, since they were kids, but her first and most abiding passion is figure skating. Kat longs to compete professionally, and Heath, who loves Kat above all else, partners with her on the ice. After Kat's father's death, they flee Illinois and Kat's dissolute older brother to enroll in an ice dance school in Los Angeles run by former Olympic champion Sheila Lin. Kat and Heath find themselves embroiled with Sheila's teen twins, Bella and Garrett, their top competitors, whom both Kat and Heath are drawn to in different ways. What follows is a decade-and-a-half of drama and heartbreak on and off the ice. Told in a mix of Kat's first-person narration and oral-history style commentary from a handful of characters who orbit the world of ice dance, Fargo's latest is a blend of sports drama, romance, and page-turning suspense as Kat and Heath fight for gold on the ice and just as often battle with each other.
