About this ebook
From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Bridesmaids and The Time of Our Lives.
Abby has been on health kicks before. They involve having one muffin for breakfast, instead of two.
But since starting a business, her fitness has taken even more of a back seat than her long-neglected love life.
Yet, when Abby meets the cute captain of the local running club, she is mysteriously compelled to exercise.
The only downside is the discovery that handsome, motorbike-riding architect Tom, with whom she’s already clashed – literally - is also a member.
She’s no runner. He’s no pushover. Together, could they ever find their stride?
The Sunday Times bestselling enemies to lovers, laugh-out-loud romcom - the perfect spring read.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In a couple of weeks, I'm turning 28 so this book seems fitting as that the protagonist is 28. As I stated before, I can no longer stand reading not-real-fiction books, I need fiction that's related to my life, so a while ago I bought many books, and I bought 2 of Jane's novels. I decided to start this one because so far Abby reminds me of myself.
Let me tell you this, I LOVED loved loved this book! I giggled and cried and at some points laughed so loud and hard late at night I was afraid to wake up the whole household!
I don't just recommend this book, I devoutly exhort everyone especially the ladies who neglect their bodies like I used to do but are trying to change that like I am now. Abby will make you want to run at 5:30 in the morning!
Ladies, I have to warn you that you are going to love this book so deeply and all it's characters (except Jess) that you'll order all of Jane Costello's books like I just did! - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I have mixed feeling about this book; the love story was nice and easy, expected, but cool.
On the other hand the surrounding environment threw me off a bit:
The best friend is the most horrible person, and gets away with everything she does, didn’t appreciate that. Especially I didn’t find believable how she gets forgiven so quickly by everybody.
The so-called initial obsession for Dr. Dishy seems a bit far-fetched. I mean Abby obsess over a guy that she sees for months three times a week and never even kiss her, really?
The boyfriend Abby gets appears out of nowhere, one second she’s single, the next she has a boyfriend after what one date, two maybe? There is no description of this relationship; it’s sort of just put there.
And finally, I am sorry to say this, but when I read a chick-lit I am looking for an escape from reality, and a happy one. The decision of the author of making the whole novel pivoting around a sad, progressive, incurable disease was something beyond me. You want to raise awareness, I am with you, I am sure we all are… that everybody does what they can for the causes they believe in, but don’t do it to people that are seeking a break with a book that should supposedly bring them joy and easiness of mind. I found it so depressing it upset me a lot. Not the feeling I was looking for.1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Ok so I really enjoyed the last three Jane Costello books I read but I struggled with this one. Don't get me wrong, there were so super hysterical parts but I found myself zoning out more than a couple of times and having to reread paragraphs more than once to understand what she was writing. Still hugely enjoyable but not one of my favourites. Also I'd just like to add just how massively predictable her books are, every time I start reading them I know straight away who she's going to end up with, which friend slept with who and what disaster is going to befall the character. This is the main reason I marked this book down.
