Seventeen year-old Russian-American elite gymnast Natalia Laskutin is only one year away from her and her father's ultimate goal, the 2008 Summer Olympics. Her elegance and unique style makes her one of America's top gymnasts, and a true contender for competing and possibly taking home her dream title, the all-around Olympic Gold medal. But when an inevitable injury leaves her torn and off her feet for a few weeks, she is pulled into the "normal" teenage world of parties, and - you guessed it! - boys! With no alternative option, Natalia struggles to fit in in life outside of the gym, while her father (and coach) struggles to watch his daughter fall into the rhythm of teenage-hood. This is a story about first love, and a father-daughter relationship that is put to the test when their common dream is potentially swept away in a heartbeat.

Letters to Nowhere #1 (Completed!)

101 parts Complete

I've gotten used to the dead parents face. I've gotten used to living with my gymnastics coach. I've even adjusted to sharing a bathroom with his way-too-hot son. Dealing with boys is not something that's made it onto my list of experiences as of yet. But here I am, doing it. And something about Jordan--being around him, talking to him, thinking about him--makes me feel like I can finally breathe again. That's something I haven't been able to do lately. He knows what it feels like to be me right now. He knows what it's like to wonder--what now? I think about it constantly. I need answers. I need to know how to get through this. In the gym, if you're struggling, you train harder, you do drills and conditioning. How do I work hard at moving on? At being on my own? And what happens if I might be...maybe...probably falling for Jordan? I mean we live together now. That can't happen, can it? But kissing him...well, let's just say it's not an easy activity to forget.
