Midnight Lanes

Eighteen months after a panic attack ended her swimming career on live television, Tegan Lowe teaches six-year-olds to blow bubbles in the spring-fed pools of Riverbend, Oregon, and calls it peace. Then Dominik Halász arrives—Olympic bronze medalist, blunt, maddening, and swimming laps alone at midnight in the same dark water she thought was hers. He won't coddle her. He won't leave. And a televised charity race through the river gorge is coming, whether she's ready or not.
