She’d started small, with only a few YouTube videos and Instagram posts. As her follower count increased and the views on YouTube grew, the more confident she became in her ability to do this full-time. She’d seen so many fellow fitness instructors who were killing it; she just knew she would crush it too. Especially when she came up with the brilliant idea to play up her Army brat background and specialize in boot camp–style workouts.

Her videos hadn’t taken off the way she’d expected, but Taylor figured she’d hit gold when that clip of the three of them chewing Craig out at that sushi restaurant had gone viral. London and Samiah had abhorred the notoriety, but Taylor soaked it in.

For weeks following the incident with Craig, she’d been inundated with inquiries, and the views on her YouTube channel had spiked. But most of the people who’d contacted her for consultations hadn’t really wanted a full-time fitness and nutrition coach. In the end, she’d garnered three new clients who’d actually turned out to be legitimate.

“So much for going viral.”

Taylor plopped down on the sofa and took out her phone. She skimmed through her Gmail account, then switched over to Facebook.

She rolled her eyes at the sight of the familiar orange-and-white logo of the Texas Longhorns avatar. The person behind the YourFavorite23 account was one persistent SOB. The messages came like clockwork, one every three days, with someone claiming he or she was willing to pay top dollar for her services as a personal fitness instructor.

As if she hadn’t heard that a hundred times since the video with Craig went viral. She was so over these lunatics. She refused to entertain messages like this one.

But she needed to make some money. And fast.

She clicked over to her business Facebook page and posted a message:

Boot Camp circuit training pop-up. 3pm tomorrow. Zilker Park. Only $10.

If she managed to convince at least five people to sign up, maybe she would be able to eat something other than ramen for dinner this week. It was a big ask, but she wanted to stay positive.
