Description: Amy Morgan’s family relocation to Nottingham sets in motion a life-changing series of events. The seventeen-year-old “A” level student falls in love, and suddenly, her world turns upside down. Steven Porter, a popular, charismatic fellow pupil, introduces her to a new world, one of change, success, failure, discovery, and ambition. His dream to run at the Olympics becomes their dream, but health issues threaten that future. Their journey, shared with new friends Mel, Christina, Sean, and Sam, is chronicled alongside historical events of 2011—the riots, a Jean Genet exhibition, a day at Alton Towers, an early Ed Sheeran concert, and a Champions League experience enrich the realism. Through months of emotional turbulence, laughter, and tears, Amy’s self-esteem is stretched to breaking. She knows, however, there is only one way to fulfill their dreams—they must aim high.
