Description
Whitney Carmichael has always been the odd one out in her family of athletes. And when her best friend bops her with a tennis ball, it’s the last straw. She’s going to tackle her fears about working out–and she does it by attending a five-week summer boot camp. From the first mile-long run to the dreaded rope hang, Whitney isn’t sure she’ll survive. And toss in the fact that Willow, someone who made her life miserable on an almost daily basis while they were at school, shows up–Whitney isn’t sure how she’ll succeed.
But any journey worth taking starts with a single step. Soon, Whitney’s feeling more confident, winning some competitions, and learning more about herself with the help of her sweet, sympathetic, and more than a little hot trainer, Axel. Her feelings soon dip into something deeper, but campers can’t date their trainers, and her struggles with Willow continue, which leaves Whitney wondering if she just shouldn’t quit while she’s ahead.
Giving up isn’t in her DNA, and the lessons she learns, about herself, about love, about friendship, change the course of her life forever.

I loved this book! I think many of my students can relate to the pressure of trying to compete with older siblings or parent expectations. The story covered the topic of bullying, also, and how that can have a lasting impact on a person's confidence. I enjoyed watching the characters all grow throughout the book and the ending couldn't be more perfect!
Wow, what a great book about knowing you can accomplish anything if you put your mind to it. Whitney decides to attend a five week fitness program because she feels if she were more athletic her dad might spend more time with her. At the camp everyone is given their own personal trainer and Whitney thinks her trainer, Axel, is quite handsome. Trainers and campers cannot date so that’s out, or is it? Whitney finds Willow, someone who bullied her, is at the camp too. As the campers do rope climbing, team challenges, a mud obstacle course, and more Whitney finds she likes the exercise. She and Willow talk about things that were said. Could they become friends now? When the founder of the camp makes an offer to Whitney, what does she say?
