The year they turn sixteen, twins Josh and Rachel have the best summer holiday ever! Camping, swimming, diving off rocks, and meeting new friends their age. Everything is perfect! But then Josh falls in love with a girl called Charlie, and what should have been a holiday romance turns into something heavy. Josh has always been attracted to danger, and Charlie seems just the same, but after the holiday has ended he is faced with his biggest challenge yet: Charlie is pregnant with his baby. Rachel is keen to support her twin - they've always been there for each other! But Josh doesn't want to know - he ignores Charlie, and their unborn baby and instead launches himself into sport - the faster and more dangerous the better! But slowly Rachel helps Josh to face up to his responsibilties and stop running away. It's not a perfect ending, but when the baby is born, Josh has turned a corner in his life. And there's no going back ...
