In the first instalment of Gill Stewart’s Galloway Girls, the reader follows Lily Hildebrand. After a breakup with the most popular guy in school, Lily Hildebrand dedicates her time to proving to everyone she is just fine. She has her hands full with organising the biggest event of the year – the gala – where she meets mysterious sailor, Tom Owen.

Sail away this summer with the unexpected romance of Scotland's most determined teenager.

Lily couldn’t have planned life better herself. She lives in the best house in town and she’s dating the most popular boy in school. Everything else she can fix. Mum’ apathy? On it! The stuffy gala committee? Watch this space!

Tom has enough on his plate without trying to drag Newton St Cuthbert into the 21st Century. His sister is sick and there’s nothing anyone can do. Not doctors, not his parents, and certainly not Lily Hildebrand.
