Roxanne is the best writer on the school paper, but she has one strict rule: no sports. While other journalists chase after the Friday night lights, she stays far away from the field. To her, sports aren't just boring; they are a painful reminder of something she lost- or never had. Watching people move with such ease and strength only highlights the part of her that feels broken or left behind.
Her luck runs out when she was given a "must-write" assignment. Something that will change her perspective about Genesis Sanders, the man she hates.
Roxanne goes into the interview expecting to meet a typical, arrogant athlete who has had everything handed to him. But as she watches Genesis play, she realizes he isn't just running for points. He's playing like his life depends on it. For the first time, Roxanne meets someone who understands what it's like to have a hole in your life that you're trying to fill. Now, she has to decide if she's brave enough to write the truth-not just about him, but about herself.
