*SIX MONTHS LATER*
Massie Block: Her reign as OCD's first sixth-grade Alpha has come to an end, and all she wants to do for the summer is party with her NBFs: Alicia, Dylan, Kristen, and, yes, even Kuh-laire. But a surprise trip to France turns the tables on the Pretty Committee when they realize they can't manage for two entire months without their Alpha. Will they find a new one? Will Alicia step up to the plate? And what happens when Massie returns?
Alicia Rivera: Her mother is now so pregnant that the family can't even consider traveling to Spain. So she's stuck in the good old USA. But instead of fashion, fun, friends, flirting, and fancy food (the five F's in Seventeen magazine) with the Pretty Committee, she has to help with the baby... 24/7. So while her friends are enjoying long days, short nights, cute boys, and bikinis, she's enjoying department stores such as Burberry Baby and Ralph Lauren for Children. So the least she can do is buy herself something, right?
Dylan Marvil: Still at Vera's house. Her mom isn't even planning on returning to New York... ever. So Dylan's faced with a desicion: move to sunny California and start all over, or stay in Westchester without her family.
Kristen Gregory: There's no soccer or school in the summer, so other than some impromptu sessions with Belle, or some study dates with Layne, who Massie still doesn't know she hangs out with, she's free. But a few weeks in, she discovers that she has nothing to do with her life. So she hops on a surprise vacation with a surprise boy's family: round-trip to the Caribbean. But does she even want to return?
Claire Lyons: She's heading off to Orlando for three weeks to visit family, friends, and who can forget Universal Studios and Disney World? But when she returns, the Pretty Committee's in turmoil, and Cam is her rock. So she spends more and more time with The Boy With Two Different Eyes and less and less time with her friends. But what if the Pretty Committee turns on her? Can Cam protect her, or will she be kicked out faster than you can say Layme?
Nice to see you all again! Here's the deal: I'm writing a book for the summer before seventh grade, which is obviously this one. I would say it'll be short, except I'm not sure it will be. So read happily, and know that the next book will be seventh grade.
Heart ya,
Joy
