Listen to Your
Heart – Olympic Series book 2
Olympic Curling medalist Robin Friesz was enjoying life
living in Stockholm, Sweden. Robin did not have to become a Swedish resident as
long as he played for the professional football team. When the league folded,
he had a choice: become a citizen or return back to the United States. His
girlfriend, Inga Johan, provided a problem. Inga, an Olympic skating medalist,
was popular in her native land. They were in love and she pushed him to become
a citizen. Robin was in a puzzle.

Excerpt:
When Robin found refuge underneath the shaded tree, a sharp
pain suddenly struck his heart. He exhaled heavily and cringed at the pain.
He quickly traced the source of discomfort that unexpectedly
tickled his heart.
An image of Inga swam inside his head, which made the pain
vanish. A smile filled the corners of his mouth during the visit down memory
lane. He stumbled into a spoiled,
arrogant foreign actress at the Vancouver International Airport.
Robin’s heart melted at the first sight of Inga, falling in
love with her. She initially hated his guts, but Cupid stuck a love arrow into
her heart. Admiration grew into attraction, which their love helped the other
capture medals at the Winter Olympics.
As Robin looked upward and gazed into the bright sunrays,
the time had come to tell Inga the truth. He had to be upfront with the love of
his life.
He stretched his body on the bench for a few seconds and ran
back home for an intense one-on-one talk with Inga. “She’s not going to like
what I have to say, but I must get this off my chest and level with her.”
While Inga never dropped hints of marriage, Robin always
understood they would eventually become Mr. and Mrs. Friesz someday. The timing
wasn’t right. He stood minutes away from risking a life of happiness over his
American stance.
