About the book: year / Seventeen-year-old Annabelle Conway is tired of the elite of Hillcrest High School, who make her life miserable just because she is not a size two. She's hiring a personal trainer this summer to help her lose weight. Annabelle could not even think that the coach would be a great guy, and also her peer. Guys like Tegan are scum. They pretend to like girls so they can make them look like idiots. We swam, we know. And we do not intend to step on the same rake. Partly she hates him simply on principle. Blond. Muscular. Funny. It doesn't help that he knows about her size. She soon realizes that Tegan is much deeper than all of this. He's the guy who teaches her how to box when she's having a bad day. Who arranges runs with her and allows her to choose her own pace. Who kisses her until she melts. He makes her feel beautiful no matter what the scale says. Unlike her mom, he doesn't expect perfection and doesn't try to shield her from the world like her dad and best friend. Tegan likes her just the way she is. But what happens if he's not around? He can't always be around... Will Annabelle be able to handle everything on her own and realize that she already fits the bill? And that her value is not in what others think of her, not in the tip of the scale, and not even in what Tegan tells her - but in herself?
