Overview
Only one of their programs survives the season. They fell for the wrong rival. Ilinca Dragomir crossed an ocean for a gymnastics scholarship, and she has spent every day since making sure it was worth it. Team captain, beam specialist, first in the gym and last to leave - she doesn't have room for distractions, and she definitely doesn't have room for Asahi Morisaki. Asahi came from Japan with one season to prove his career wasn't a mistake his family will spend years paying for. He didn't plan on sharing a gym with the women's team. He didn't plan on the captain who trains like she has something to prove being the only person on campus who actually understands what he's carrying. Then Kestrel University announces it: budget cuts mean only one gymnastics program survives the year. Men's or women's. Not both. The gym they've always shared becomes the line they're suddenly standing on opposite sides of - and the rival who gets it, who's fighting the exact same war for the exact same reasons, is the last person Ilinca and Asahi should be falling for. What's inside:
- Rival team captains x forced-proximity shared gym
- Dual POV, present tense - his head, then hers, every chapter
- Immigrant-outsider leads who actually understand each other
- A zero-sum institutional conflict with real stakes, not just misunderstandings
- Slow burn that turns into full commitment, fast
- A guaranteed happily ever after - earned, not clean Sticking the Landing is a full-length, standalone college sports romance. No cheating, no love triangle, no cliffhanger - just two rivals who crossed oceans for this sport and found the one person who understands exactly what it cost. Book 5 in the Contemporary Novel Series. New couple, new campus, new sport, every time. Read in any order.
