Carli Carroll is your not-so-average gymnast. After all, being a genius on the mat means special training and possibly Olympic fame! But with Carli's not-so-genius report card and a life on the ranch, who has time for gymnastic glory? After knowing that she needs to contribute more time to her gymnastics life, Carli takes Saturday practices and works extra hard. When one old-time gold medalist turned gymnastic coach, Rick, wants to teach Carli the way to be a gymnastic star, she is afraid to ask her parents. But when Rick gets arrested for a reason no one can seem to understand, how can Carli chase her dreams when her life seems so unbalanced? Can she really go all the way, when one fall costs you your career?
The book was okay, but an easy read. At the end it went from angry to all of a sudden, her parents were accepting. They had been so against the gymnastics that, you thought that they would say no. It was really a dynamic character problem.
