Description

Juliet's online chess games are her escape, a place where she can be herself without the weight of her arthritis holding her back. But when she meets Ronan, a boy with a troubled past, she starts to wonder if he sees her as more than just a girl with crutches.

Despite their differences, Juliet and Ronan have more in common than they think. Both have found solace in their online games, and both are struggling to come to terms with their past. As they begin to chat, they must confront their own insecurities and learn to see beyond their online personas.

This heartwarming story explores the complexities of online relationships and the power of human connection. With its relatable characters and authentic portrayal of life with a disability, The First Move is a moving and thought-provoking read.
