Description
To honor the death of her best friend, teen Sienna signs up to do a triathlon and finds a connection with an unexpected training partner in this body-positive romance exploring first love, grief, perseverance and trusting in yourself. Five months ago, Sienna Shoring lost her best friend, Stacey, to suicide. Now Sienna's back at school, struggling "and failing" to find her new place in the social hierarchy. Awkward and alone, Sienna is still dealing with her grief. When a package arrives for the Try It Triathlon, which Stacey signed them up for as a joke, it's like receiving a message from the grave. Sienna has no experience with running or biking. And she doesn?t even own a swimsuit. But she decides to take on the challenge in honor of her best friend, despite being a fat girl. And when mysterious jock Blake Romano approaches her unexpectedly and offers to train with her, she can hardly say no. He seems to understand her in a way no one else does. But Blake has a secret that might just break Sienna?s heart, even as he?s winning it.
