From gold medalist and reality TV star Shawn Johnson comes a debut YA novel inspired by her own experiences as an elite teenage gymnast—just in time for the Summer 2016 Olympic games.

Charlie Ryland has no interest in drawing attention to herself. Nothing to see here but your average high school sophomore: good grades, nice boyfriend, and passable social standing.

Except for one big secret: When Charlie’s not at school, she’s busy pulling off gravity defying stunts in an elite level gym, proving she’s one of the best gymnasts in the world. Flying under the radar is difficult when you’re competing for Olympic gold, but Charlie’s determined to keep her secret—to have her real life and a gold medal too.

But when her double life is in danger of being exposed, Charlie is forced to decide what matters most. Is being a regular high schooler worth it if it jeopardizes her one big chance to be truly exceptional?

Inspired by Shawn Johnson’s own experiences, this fun, breezy read explores the precarious balance between the real world and the world of competitive gymnastics.
