From the New York Times bestselling author of 99 Days and How to
Love comes a stunning new contemporary novel--all about boy bands, girl
bands, best friends, and first love--perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen
and Morgan Matson.
It was always meant to be Olivia. She's the talented one, the one who's
been training to be a star her whole life. Her best friend, Dana, is the
levelheaded one, always on the sidelines, cheering Olivia on.
But everything changes when Dana tags along with Olivia to Orlando for
the weekend, where superproducer Guy Monroe is holding auditions for a
new singing group, and Dana is discovered too. Dana, who's never sung
more than Olivia's backup. Dana, who wasn't even looking for fame. Next
thing she knows, she and Olivia are training to be pop stars, and Dana
is falling for Alex, the earnest, endlessly talented boy who's destined
to be the next big thing.
It should be a dream come true, but as the days of grueling practice and
constant competition take their toll, things between Olivia and Dana
start to shift . . . and there's only room at the top for one girl. For
Olivia, it's her chance at her dream. For Dana, it's a chance to escape
a future that seems to be closing in on her. And for these lifelong best
friends, it's the adventure of a lifetime--if they can make it through.
Set in evocative 1990s Orlando, Fireworks brings to life the
complexity of friendship, the excitement of first love, and the feeling
of being on the verge of greatness.
