Desperate times call for desperate measures. When the bad boy of the NHL, Zack Parker, lands himself in a public relations nightmare, his manager hatches a foolproof plan to get him out of trouble. With Zack's hockey career in limbo, he reluctantly agrees to compete on a reality TV show called The Stars of Ballroom. At the end of the day, Zack figures he'll slog his way through the first week, get voted off and everyone will forget about his latest scandal, plus he'll score a brand-new contract with the Vegas Royals. What he doesn't bank on is his tough, no-nonsense dance partner, Hannah Thorne from the UK. After missing the show last year due to an injury, Hannah is back and ready to battle it out to the end. She's won the show twice and if she takes home the top prize again it will make her the only three-time champion of The Stars of Ballroom. Hannah is a fighter and has zero patience for Zack and his bad-boy ways. Her future depends on this victory, and she's willing to risk everything to win. Go big or go home!
