Sutton James always loved the game of basketball. The basketball court was able to calm her down and keep her mind at peace from everything else in her world. After graduating with a degree in sports management from UCLA, she was drafted to the Los Angeles Sparks as their starting shooting guard. This was what Sutton had been working for her entire life.

During her 5th season with the Sparks, Sutton tore her ACL. For some people, this can be a career ending injury, but Sutton was determined to get back on the court. After her surgery, Sutton began her rehab journey at one of the best facilities in the country. The facility works with some of the most well known athletes, actors/actresses, and singers around. 

On her first session, Sutton comes across the most beautiful woman she has ever seen. She immediately recognized her, Hailee Steinfeld! Her breath hitched in her chest at the women's pure beauty. 

Hailee is a distraction Sutton did not foresee. 

Will Sutton be able to make it through her rehab and be the player she once was? Will she talk to Hailee? Will she finally fall in love with something other than the game?
