Lara Bloom is desperately falling for the new boy Caiden but fears he won't like her for her awkward, clumsy, football loving self.
She and her friends decide to embark on a glow up and hold regular sessions to improve themselves.
Sure this is the fast track to success to getting the boy of her dreams Lara gives it all she's got.
She is determined and sure that this will work and she and Caiden will be a couple.
Nothing will go wrong, surely THIS times she deserves a little luck?
But things don't always go according to plan and when things go badly wrong her world falls apart and she has to deal with all that ensues.
But the moral of the story is that we shouldn't have to TRY to make people like us, we as ourselves should be enough.
A clever story that will appeal to it's teen audience, sympathetically and well written dealing with sensitive subject matters.
I really enjoyed this.
