I come to after a massive wipe out at the skatepark, and Beckett Steele - the world champion - is staring back at me. I thought I had the park all to myself, but he tells me with a sheepish shrug that he was watching me. “What? You’re a hot chick who knows her way around a skatepark.” Did I mention Beckett is the hottest guy I’ve ever seen in my life? Maybe I hit my head harder than I realized because this can’t be real life. Reality hits when Beckett loses interest as soon as he learns about our eight-year age gap. But out paths collide the very next day when his best friend wants to sponsor me for his new skateboarding company. I’ve got no interest in going pro and get anxiety when people watch me skateboard. Can I face being in the spotlight to get closer to Becket? Even it’s just as friends. For now.

Beckett Steele knows what he wants and he’s finally going after it. But there’s one thing that might complicate his mission. It was easy to sign the legally-binding contract prohibiting a public relationship when he had no intention of falling in love. He agreed to participate in a reality television show in order to help promote his best friend’s new skateboarding company, but that was before he met Jordan Slattery. Now, he’s realizing that signing that contract might be the biggest regret of his life.

It only takes a second for her world to come crashing down. Jordan’s crash is a wake-up call for everyone. Recovering from a head injury brings new challenges no one is expecting or prepared to handle. Jordan begins to doubt that she has what it takes to make it as a pro skateboarder. Is she tough enough to be part of Beckett Steele’s world? Or is this crash a sign she lacks what it takes? With the filming Shred Live looming, Beck is forced to re-evaluate his priorities. The risks that come with being one of the world’s best skateboarders aren’t always what they seem. Add Jordan to the equation, and the dangers take on a whole new meaning. A few seconds can change everything. Especially mid-air on one of the largest half pipes in the world.

Her new path is all about split second decisions. One of them will change her life forever. Jordan’s ready to embrace her identity as a pro skateboarder but wants to do it on her own terms. With her boyfriend the most popular skateboarder in the world, it’s not easy being seen and treated as just the girlfriend. Jordan’s ready to prove the haters wrong and is determined to earn a spot as one of the world’s best in her own right. To achieve this, she’ll have to do something no woman has ever done before – landing an aerial 720 at a competition. In order to pull that off, Jordan can’t let her anxiety hold her back. It won’t be easy to do when the source of that anxiety keeps threatening to return, leaving Beck and Jordan looking over their shoulders, never entirely free from the past. This time, Beck and Jordan are taking on the challenges of being in the public eye together, as a team, even if some people want to break them apart. In order to achieve her goals and survive, Jordan will have to face her fears head on.
