Cassie's Choice
Attractive and athletic, seventeen-year-old Cassie finds herself torn between pursuing her widowed mother's dream for her to win a soccer scholarship to a prestigious university, or following her heart and becoming a trapeze artist like her father before her. Her twin brother wins one, but Cassie misses out when she's sucker punched durning a game by the jealous girlfriend of a boy to whom she is attracted.<br/><br/>Disappointed by her failure, she decides to follow her personal goal to become a trapeze artist. With her mother's grudging support, she joins the same circus her father had starred in as the leading flyer. But Cassie must overcome acrophobia if she's ever to become a flyer. Instantly, she becomes a close friend of the circus owner's daughter, who helps her in the struggle to beat her fear of heights.<br/><br/>Her training program is soon interrupted when she suffers a serious injury in a fall from the trapeze. The investigation of the accident not only unmasks the reason for her father's painful tumble, but also the probable cause of her father's suspicious death on the trapeze two years before.
