Beskrivning
Keegan Mansfield is a loner.
A bilateral amputee athlete.
With only one goal; to qualify for the Rio Olympic Games.
But there are several ingredients missing in his life. Important ingredients like love, truth, and happiness.
He's never been in love. He's a virgin. He sees himself as unworthy of love because of his handicap. In his eyes, he's only half a man, and being loveless is better than being rejected. Not even Jean, the one woman whom he trusts, is able to get him to love her.
And then Conrad Smith comes along and shatters the wall he's built around himself. In one day, Conrad saves him from a potentially harmful situation with another team mate and suddenly everything changes. Keegan had always been attracted to men rather than women, so when Conrad comes along, his mind set begins to change. He and Keegan embark on a journey of self-discovery that could lead to love, until Conrad breaks his heart.
Keegan moves into survival mode. He runs. He knew this would happen. And it will take a stranger to bring him back to reality.
There are forces trying to stop him from reaching his goal. Geoffrey Marx is bent on having Keegan thrown off the team. But who is Geoffrey Marx? He wants to destroy Keegan. The question is why?
Keegan learns the truth, not only of Conrad's betrayal, but also the truth about the accident that took his legs nine years earlier. And, just as things seemed as bad as they could get, he learns an important lesson, that trust is not a game, trust is as real as day and night, as real as the wind. He learns, through tragedy, that Rio comes with the sacrifice of his dependency on others.
He learns that true love thrives on togetherness.
But will he forgive Conrad? Can they make each other happy like before? And if he forgive Conrad, where will his future take him?
