With limited time to live, she takes the challenge of living her adolescence in fast-forward and compiles a catalogue of what she feels every teenager should experience, losing her virginity being one. With the help of best friend Zoey (Scodelario), she sets the list in motion. While her family deals with fear and grief, each in their own way, Tessa explores a whole new world and discovers the feeling of falling in love, which proves to be the most exhilarating experience of them all.

Heck (Matthew Goode) and Rachel (Piper Perabo) are a happy young couple about to embark on life together. But at the church, Rachel catches the eye of an unexpected guest. In that moment, she realises that maybe Heck isn’t everything she’s ever wanted. Of course, they will never know for sure unless they give it a shot. What follows is the romantic and hilarious journey familiar to anyone who’s ever been lucky (or unlucky) enough to be under love’s spell.
