Get your skates on for the sweetest feel-good, body-positive rom com of the summer

For sixteen-year-old Ruby, GCSEs are over and summer has just begun, so that means hanging out with her BFFs in the park 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 didn't expect that she would need help - nor that she would find it in the cute boy who has just moved in next door. As the two jog through the long summer evenings in south London's parks together, with Ollie only seeing her at her sweatiest and most vulnerable, the last thing she expected was that he might . . . like her. Or that she could allow herself to like him.

But nothing this summer is working out like she expected . . . Bethany is a writer and podcaster. She writes books about women, bodies and clothes. She lives in Southeast London. Get your skates on for the sweetest feel-good, body-positive rom com of the summer A feel-good read celebrating body positivity and widening participation in sports Strong focus on family, and mending difficult relationships Clean-teen, suitable for readers from 12+ Bethany co-hosts book podcast What Page Are You On? with Alice Slater.
