For sixteen-year-old Ruby, GCSEs are over and summer has just begun, which means hanging out with her BFFs on their roller skates and having fun. She didn’t expect it to mean signing up to run in the Dawson Dash – a 5k race for sporty sixth-formers. Because Ruby is NOT sporty. But she really needs to prove her mean brother and even meaner PE teacher wrong about what a fat girl can do.
When Ruby starts to train, she doesn’t expect that she would need help – nor that she would find it in the cute boy who has just moved in next door. Nothing this summer is working out like she expected . . .
