For Yvonne Hermosa, what matters most is to make her Mother proud and make his Father come home. And what way could a girl like her do it? Study hard, Jump hard, and make it pretty. 

So when her hard-earned sport is about to crumble down because of a failing grade, she has no choice but to convince the ever enigmatic Kai Ikeda to tutor her. 

For Kai Ikeda, what matters most is to give a better life for his Father and sister. He's a scholar and has a night shift part-time job, which makes his schedule pretty tight to still have time for his training.

So when Yvonne offered him a practical deal he can't seem to refuse too, he thought of the things that matter most to him. 

A deal

A bargain 

and a little electricity going on 

two young hearts are about to play destiny's unyielding sport where others are not fortunate enough to win it. With a tragedy just waiting to strike over them, will they finally know what really matters most?

The two tried to dampen the flames of their burgeoning attraction for each other but not before they got caught and were the talk of the town for months. After the fall out, Maddie moved away to try and start her life over and not be known as the girl who got caught doing it with her 'brother' at prom.

Fourteen-year-old Edison Green may be a genius, but he doesn't have a clue about what to do on his first day of high school. After being homeschooled until age 9 and then starting college courses, Edison doesn't have any experience with kids his own age. His parents believe he has a rare gift and they don't want him to be distracted by the menial problems of teenagers; instead, they want him to focus on his research project, which could be the next big breakthrough in physics. Edison loves physics more than anything, but loneliness and curiosity about life outside his world cause him to rebel. He goes on strike, refusing to continue his studies until his parents agree to let him go to high school for one year. Edison isn't worried about high school being hard--after all, he's been invited to join Mensa International--an exclusive club for the top 2% of the world's smartest people. But he finds out quickly that it takes more than a high IQ to traverse the social events and activities at Southton High School. During an unfortunate encounter with the school's most popular athlete, Edison meets Christina Blakely, who saves him from getting pummeled on his first day of school. She is the exact opposite of him in every way. Christina is a soccer phenom who doesn't have time to be friends with lowly freshmen. She's got problems of her own, including a low GPA, which could prevent her from getting a college scholarship. Can Christina achieve the impossible-the highest GPA she's ever had--and earn her scholarship? And can Edison prove to his parents and everyone else-including Ashley Murray, the most beautiful girl he's ever seen-that he can do more than solve difficult math problems? Can he really change the world with his research project, win Ashley's heart and survive high school?
