Four best friends start a party-planning business in this fresh, funny
tween novel from the authors of At Your Service and Breaking the
Ice.
Twelve-year-old Sadie loves helping her mom with her wedding planning
business, and with Sadie's mad organizational skills, she's a natural!
That's why it's so devastating when her mother "fires" her after a
Little Mermaid-themed wedding goes awry.
Enter Sadie's best friends: sporty Vi, ace student Lauren, and boy-crazy
Becca. The girls decide that in order to get Sadie's mom to reconsider,
they have to make her see how amazing Sadie is at party planning. Except
no one's gonna hire a twelve-year-old to plan a wedding. A birthday
party, though? Definite possibility.
Before long, RSVP--your one-stop shop for the most creative parties in
town--is born. Of course, Sadie can't wait to prove herself to her mom,
but the other girls also have their reasons for enlisting: Vi has her
eye on the perfect gift for her hardworking dad, and Becca's all aflush
at the thought of connecting with Ryan, the new Irish cutie in town. And
though Lauren thinks she's too busy with summer studies to "officially"
join, she's willing to help out in any way she can.
But in this particular party-planning business, nothing goes according
to plan! Sadie's mom is a perpetual no-show, Vi's archrival is dead set
on ruining her summer, Becca can't seem to get Ryan to glance in her
direction, and Lauren keeps choosing studying over her friends. Is the
girls' friendship strong enough to survive a business? Or does RSVP
spell the end of these BFFs?
