What they want most may be the one thing out of their reach.

Canadian rock climber Spencer Woolery has been training for the Olympics since before climbing was an Olympic sport. Dedication, determination, and strict adherence to a rigorous training regimen have gotten him to the summer games, but are they enough to elevate him to the podium? He'll do whatever it takes to give himself the best shot, unlike American Flynn Loren, a.k.a. Flyin' Flynn, who seems to succeed without making any effort at all.

Flynn loves climbing, but he hates being a professional climber. He'd rather be climbing real rock-outside in the sun having fun with his friends-than stuck indoors sweating over times and points and strategies. And he'd rather win Spencer's heart than a medal, but that prize continues to elude him.

Against the backdrop of Olympic Village in Tokyo, Flynn and Spencer compete against each other and eighteen other men to see who'll take home a medal and who'll win something even greater than gold.

Note: this book takes place in an alternative universe where the Tokyo Olympics happened in the summer of 2020 as planned.
