Everyone has a story. Even the dog. Shadowed by a stray he names Fantasma, five-year-old Mateo Sandoval flees the poverty and crime of his homeland with his mother in search of the American dream. Shortly after arriving at his grandmother’s house in Kentucky, however, his mother unexpectedly abandons them. For years, Mateo struggles to fit in—until he discovers running. When the high school cross country coach dies unexpectedly, Grayson Darling steps in to fill the void. For Mateo, however, the gravelly voice that inspired him is gone and the threat of deportation is all too real. It’s not until Grayson loans him his dog, Sooner, that Mateo’s love of running returns. Meanwhile, Mateo discovers that the bully who taunts him daily is not as tough as he seems. During the day, Sooner accompanies Grayson’s girlfriend, Brandy Anders, to her new job as an assistant to small-town lawyer, Rex Franzen. With Sooner’s help, Brandy finds new purpose. Say You Will is about how we're often more alike than we're different and how our differences can be our strengths.
