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.
But when first love and a lifelong dream are on the line, can their friendship survive the ultimate rivalry?
- Best Friends to Rivals: She was supposed to be Olivia's biggest fan. Now Dana is her biggest competition, and there's only one spot at the top.
- A Complicated Love Triangle: Dana is falling for Alex, the talented star of a rival boy band. The only problem? He's the guy Olivia has been crushing on for years.
- 90s Nostalgia: Set against the backdrop of 1990s Orlando, this story perfectly captures the electric energy of the boy band and girl group era.
- Finding Your Voice: A powerful story about a girl used to the sidelines discovering her own talent--even if it means outshining her best friend.
