Summary
Qualifying for Nationals. It’s all I can think about, and I’m willing to do anything it takes to make it happen. I can handle long miles and hill sprints in cross country, but guys? That’s an entirely different challenge.
I’ve kept my feelings hidden from the boy next door all this time. My longtime friend Jace Wilder doesn’t see me that way. He has the personal magnetism and good looks to hook just about any girl in town - and he has. Our friendship stands apart from high school social circles, and I’m fine with that, or so I keep telling myself.
That is, until running star Ryan Harding moves to town and bridges the gap. Apparently, I’ve caught his eye, and suddenly Jace starts seeing me in a different light. Everything changes, for all of us.
On the trails, my goals are clear. Train, run, breathe, run, win. But when it comes to Jace and Ryan, it’s nowhere near as simple. This battle can’t be won by crossing a finish line; this war is in my heart.

Pepper Jones is a cross country runner with a crush on her childhood best friend, Jace Wilder; add in the new guy and star runner, Ryan Harding, and you’ve got yourself a confused and conflicted Pepper. The story is cute and Pepper’s feelings are definitely relatable to anyone who was once a high school girl crushing on more than one guy.

Pepper is a runner who is very good. She won States last year and her goal is to qualify for nationals.
Jase is her friend and has been for many years. They grew up together. He’s a football player who is also good. They run in different circles at school and he parties a lot and Pepper doesn’t party.
Ryan, new in their school, also a runner , he won at nationals last year. He and Pepper are attracted to each other and start dating.
What happens when they do is a series of issues that make you want to keep listening. There’s many sides to all of these people, and Ali Dean is showing us all of them! Looking for book 2 immediately!!!
Stacey Glemboski did a wonderful job with the voices in this book!!! They were easily discernible and all pleasant to listen to.
Excellent story!

Pepper is in love with best friend Jace and thinks he doesn't return the same feelings. She meets Ryan, who is also a runner, and share a connection. But she can't quite let Jace go. I liked the plot but felt like the characters were missing a little something. Pepper somehow doesn't know that Jace shares the same feelings, but everyone else does. Pepper still wants to be with Jace over Ryan even though Jace has a lot of things going on that most girls wouldn't want to deal with or get involved with. Then Jace magically pushes all those things aside and gives them up for Pepper?!?!? Really?! With that said I still want to read the next book in the series and see what goes on with them next.
The narration by Stacey Glemboski was very well done. Looking forward to the next narration.

I was completely immersed in throughout. Pepper Jones is such a sweet and driven girl. But boy does Jace Wilder have a hold of her heart. Life long best friends and she’s been in crush with him forever.
It’s maddening to see Jace living it up on the wild side while actively controlling their friendship and any outside interest in Pepper. We’ve probably all been there... I know I have do it was so easy to relate but so frustrating nonetheless.
I cannot wait to dive into book 2. I feel like these characters will stay with me for a very long time.
Great start to an already addictive YA series.
