Claire Campbell is a someday-famous actress.  Not a drama queen!  But none of her (many, fabulous) moments in the spotlight have prepared her for the real life drama of overhearing teachers secretly plotting revenge on the troublemakers in her middle school with mean pranks of their own. Unfortunately, the only one who believes her is one of their victims, loser Brody Hayes, the most aggravating boy in school.  With his interference, she must uncover the teachers who are involved before they realize she’s onto them and ruin her chances for fame and fortune.

If Suzy is going to follow family tradition by making a varsity team at the high school, she’s got to find a sport of her own.  Camp UCan seemed like the perfect place.  How was she supposed to know it was a fat camp?

Why Should Boys Have All the Fun?

Cassie Miller likes to play sports, and she likes to win.  Especially on the basketball court.  Coming in first is the only thing that matters.  Isn't it?  After making varsity as a freshman, life is a slam dunk -- until the complications of a boyfriend on a losing team, a jealous teammate, and parents who only seem to notice when she loses.  Sinking a three-pointer from downtown is easier than this.  In ONE ON ONE, competitive Cassie must decide if she should stop putting the game first, or do what she does best:  Win!
