Instead of playing mixed doubles like they had as teens, siblings Theo and Kassia Rhodes part ways and go pro as singles players. Kassia quickly gains momentum and rockets up the rankings but Theo can't get past the top 150. He's considering retirement for college when Kassia is unexpectedly diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer, which is uncurable and extremely rare for a young woman. It becomes a race against the clock to spend every minute with her. But when Kassia dies, Theo is devastated and when he returns to the court, no one is strong enough to defeat his grief. Throughout this journey, Theo's best friend's sister has supported him and even falls in love with him. But will her love be enough to help Theo realize that all Kassia ever wanted was for him to have pride in himself, or will he push himself too hard?
