I saw the cover, read a two sentences summary and went, "This would probably make a good audiobook." I took a leap and I'm happy about it! This was contemporary fiction with the majority of story and plot revolving around figure skating, the drama and bureaucracy that comes with it, and the romance found a tasteful place amongst all that. I think it read like a TV show, i.e. "Make It or Break It" or "Pretty Little Liars."
