With the help from an old friend, Francisco, and a new friend, Allison they devise a plan to figure out what exactly happened to Cal. But when the media decides to put their own spin on Zach’s life things quickly get out of control. Pictures of Zach and Allison surface, and rumors of their relationship threaten to destroy the hope Zach has at finding Cal.
Connecting with ghosts of his past might put everything Zach’s worked so hard for in jeopardy. He has to decide if lost love is more important than Olympic dreams. Finding the girl could mean losing it all.
