The Cutting Edge meets Step Up in this hilarious M X novel where the worlds of football and ballet collide. Football is everything in Emma's Texas town. The week revolves around Friday night lights; her step-brother Tanner is the star of the high school team, her step-dad is an arm-chair quarterback, and her mom is the team's biggest fan. Even her best friend, Mia, creates vlogs about the football team and posts them on her YouTube page. In other words, everyone eats, sleeps, and breathes football. Well, everyone except Emma. Because to Emma, it's not football that's everything, but ballet. It's her way of escaping the town's obsession with football and gives her a way to just be herself. Auditions are coming up for the Texas School of the Arts, where she can escape the football craze permanently. But then the worst possible thing happens. The middle school football coach doesn't think his boys have quite what it takes on the football field, and decides to follow in the footsteps of the Dallas Cowboys to have the team trade in their helmets for high kicks in order to gain better agility on the field. Ballet was supposed to be her place, and now that's getting invaded by football too. And then something even worse happens: her audition partner breaks his leg. And the only other male dance partner available? Logan, star of the middle school football team. What could go wrong from giving it a chance to save her dreams?
