Together For Never

Description

The Parent Trap meets Mean Girls when two polar opposites are squeezed into a tiny vacation house just because their parents are dating. Charlotte is the queen bee of her 8th grade class-popular, confident, always wearing the trendiest clothes-and judging others for what they wear. Lily is a loner who dreams of becoming a writer-and she wants nothing to do with Charlotte and her snobby crowd. Then Charlotte's divorced father starts dating Lily's single mother. Neither one of the girls even notices-until the day they learn that they are going on vacation together. Worse than that, they'll have to share a small bedroom for two whole weeks. When The Parent Trap meets Mean Girls, can two girls ever make peace, or will they drag their vacations-and their parents' romance-into disaster? Every teen girl's nightmare becomes an entertaining, surprising and heartfelt story in the hands of seasoned middle grade pro Marilyn Kaye.
