Shy girls don’t yarn-bomb the school fence
at dawn, and they definitely don’t skip school to hang out with Patrick
Hayes—student council president, football vice-captain (and president of
his own fan club).
But then, best friends don’t usually resort
to blackmail.
Fifteen-year-old Mabs is the shadow to
Olivia’s sun. That’s how it’s always been. But when Olivia goes on a
semester-long exchange to France, Mabs can no longer hide behind her best
friend.
When a letter arrives, postmarked Paris,
the last thing Mabs expects is blackmail. And unless she completes the
enclosed list of dares by the time Olivia gets home, Olivia will send the
love poem she stole from Mabs’s diary to the boy she wrote it about.
What’s even worse than the possibility of
Rob Eno (her way too easily decipherable codename for the former object of
her affections) seeing that poem, or her best friend thinking that she’s a
friendless recluse who needs to be blackmailed into getting a life, is
having to admit it just might be true.
After a few humiliating attempts, Mabs
realises the only way she’s ever going to get the list finished in time is
to enlist the help of an extrovert. Enter Patrick Hayes, her brother’s
pain-in-the-neck best friend. The ultimate extrovert, he might be the only one
who can help Mabs finish the list, and step out of Olivia’s shadow.
