This movie is based on the true life story of carley Allison (whom I'd never heard of until watching the movie) a teen figure skater who is faced with a rare form of throat cancer, but bravely stays positive and continues trying to achieve her dreams whilst also holding down a relationship.
The movie itself was OK, I did feel happy and also sad for her at times. But what was off putting was the constant narration and time jumps, I feel it would have been a better movie without all that and instead focus on the story itself.
I didn't find out until the credits rolled that the person who played carley in the movie, was real life carleys best friend. I found that absolutely amazing that she was able to do that.

This is sixth in a series but can be read as a standalone. This is the story of Security Firm Owner Larkin and Winnie, abuse survivor, a woman of wealth, and owner of a secret home for abused women.

Winnie employs Larkin to protect her and her women's' home following an article listing Winnie Bellamy as one of the wealthiest women in America. Larkin ups the security at her home, before whisking her away to his family compound on Wolff Mountain to keep her safe.

They both try there hardest to ignore the mutual attraction and try their hardest to maintain their professional relationship, but they find it difficult to keep their hands to themselves.

The characters are likeable and the story is enjoyable, if not a little predictable and cheesy.
