Winnie must go through several of these dates with her childhood friend, now mortal enemy, and he must grade her on each date. Oh, not to mention each date is based off a scene from an American rom-com movie. So when Winnie’s older sisters come home from college not yet engaged, and their parents don’t understand why, they share it’s because they never had practice! So Winnie’s parents, ever so true to the phrase “practice makes perfect,” decide that Winnie can date in high school, only as practice, on dates they plan, and only with boys that they pick.
