From the Author of the L.A. Candy Novels!

In Hollywood, fame can be found on every corner and behind any door.  You just have to know where to look for it. Nineteen-year-old Madison Parker made a name for herself as best frenemy of nice-girl-next-door, Jane Roberts on the hot reality show L.A. Candy. 
Now Madison's ready for her turn in the spotlight, and she'll stop at nothing to get it.  Sure, she's the star of a new show, but with backstabbing friends and suspicious family members trying to bring her down, Madison has her work cut out for her.

Plus - 

There's a new girl in "reality" town...aspiring actress Cameron Curtis, the daughter of Hollywood royalty.  She is a lot more experienced at playing the FAME GAME!

When the camera is rolling, whose star will shine brighter??

A New Read!


When The Stars Go Blue
by Caridad Ferrer

Dance is Soledad Reyes's life. About to graduate from Miami's Biscayne High School for the Performing Arts, Soledad plans on spending her last summer at home working in a dance studio, saving up money, and eventually auditioning for dance companies. That is, until fate intervenes in the form of fellow student Jonathan Crandall with what sounds like an outrageous proposition. Forget teaching. Why not actually dance, in front of an audience, in the intense environment of competitive drum and bugle corps? The corps is going to be performing Carmen, and the role of the sultry gypsy is Soledad's dream role. She joins the troupe and she and Jonathan grow closer. But a competitor for her affections soon makes himself known: Taz, a member of an all-star Spanish soccer team. One explosive encounter later and Soledad finds not only her relationship with Jonathan threatened, but her future as a professional dancer as well.

Choices!


Loser/Queen
by Jodi Lynn Anderson

Cammy Hall is at the absolute bottom of the high school social order. She acts like her Grandparents and spends all of her time knitting and hanging out with her uncool Danish exchange-student friend. She begins receiving mysterious text messages telling her to do things to and for various students and teachers. At first the things seem positive and harmless and they even make her popular, but soon that all changes. In the end Cammy must decide if she should keep doing what the texts tell her to do and stay popular or stop following them and risk losing all of her new found popularity.
