Can a stunt double catch a falling star and not get burned? As a young rising star, Eddie Crane fell in love with costar Cory, but a car accident--with Eddie at the wheel--ripped Cory out of his life. Now, scarred and guilt-ridden, Eddie tempts fate that a stunt--on or off camera--will go wrong. Teenaged fantasies about the actor on his wall distracted Arthur Pike from the real-life unrequited love for his best friend and from his dysfunctional family. Now grown and off the farm, Pike is a horse stuntman hired to teach a reluctant Eddie to ride. Pike is drawn to Eddie's dominant nature despite the sadness clinging to the actor. Eddie let one lover down, but in Pike's submissiveness, he sees the possibility for redemption.
