"Jade, a young French noblewoman, has a problem. Her parents expect her to marry a rich prince to save their dwindling family fortune. But Jade doesn't want to fall in line or in love--all she wants to do is pump iron and get. Those. Gains! Jade's obsession with powerlifting and getting strong is at odds with the image of a delicate flower that society expects from her. When--in a fit of rage--she sends a fellow high-society teen, obnoxious pretty boy Nathaniel, flying through a buffet table during a ball, it looks like Jade's secret may be out! But before a scandal erupts, the quick-thinking teen comes up with a brilliant excuse: Love made her do it! Now, Jade finds herself in a dizzying courtship dance between spoiled Nathaniel; Alexander, a stable hand she wants to get lifting tips from; Eloise, a mean girl hiding a soft heart; and Simon, Nathaniel's insufferable best friend. Can Jade keep her secret and learn that strength isn't only measured by how much one can deadlift?" -- Amazon.com viewed May 19, 2026.
