About The Book

“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

The Favorites is 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.

About The Author

Layne Fargo has a background in theater, women’s studies, and library science, so it’s only fitting that she now writes deliciously dramatic, unapologetically feminist stories for a living. She’s the author of psychological thrillers They Never Learn and Temper, as well as co-author on the bestselling Young Rich Widows series, and her work has been translated into over a dozen languages. Layne lives in Chicago with her partner, their pets, and an ever-expanding collection of books she’s definitely going to read before she dies.

About Adam Reisinger 

Adam Reisinger has been covering sports for more than 30 years, and currently serves as the deputy NBA editor for ESPN. com. He has a passion for figure skating, which earlier this year led him to launch the blog “Kingdom of Ice-olation,” which covers all aspects of skating, from competitions to shows to theatre on ice. He is a “Disney Adult,” which means on most weekends you can find him at a Disney On Ice show. He is also an author, querying his debut novel, a sapphic romance set in the world of show skating.
