A figure-skating dream shaped by resilience and friendship

Vivien Kendall’s ambition to become a great figure skater takes shape alongside the challenges of growing up with a prominent birthmark and facing prejudice. The description places her relationships with a nanny, a mentor, and a celebrated coach among the sources of support that help her hold on to her belief in herself. Love, heartbreak, competition, and injustice broaden the story beyond the pursuit of a sporting goal, while the idea of an inner “spirit flame” gives the coming-of-age narrative a recurring theme of personal conviction and the capacity to make a difference.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults interested in coming-of-age fiction centered on a young woman’s ambitions.
  • Readers drawn to stories involving figure skating, mentorship, and enduring friendships.
  • Those interested in fiction exploring prejudice, resilience, and self-belief.

Book overview

From the #1 Amazon bestselling author of In an Instant comes an inspirational coming-of-age story about one extraordinary girl's determination to chase a dream.

Vivien Kendall has always been different. Born with a birthmark covering much of her face, she's bullied, ridiculed, and mistreated as a child. But at the age of six, Vivien learns that in each of us there burns a spirit flame--a deep belief in oneself that must be nurtured and never allowed to go out.

Living by that wisdom and through the enduring friendships of her nanny, her mentor, and the legend who eventually becomes her coach, she chases her dream to someday become the greatest figure skater in the world.

Along the way, she faces a rapidly evolving world full of modern prejudice and injustice. She falls in love, has her heart broken, learns what it means to win or lose, and discovers the wonder of one, the power within each of us to change things.
