BOOK SYNOPSIS
Josie loves hottie Ethan Lancaster, the captain of the basketball team, but she never can do or say the right thing in front of him. So how can it be fair that Ethan is only interested in her best friend, Cami, when Cami isn’t even trying for his affection? Or is she?
Cami dreams of winning her basketball team’s coveted MVP award, and earning the chance to take the court during a special halftime demonstration with WNBA star Rebecca Lobo, but her best friend, Josie, is a better player. So how can it be fair that Josie is a shoo-in for the honor if she is barely interested in basketball in the first place and isn’t even trying to be the best? Or is she?
Told from two points of view, this novel of freshman life, love, and the pursuit of free throws displays the same delightful humor as Playing the Field and All’s Fair in Love, War, and High School.
AUTHOR BIO
Janette Rallison had a brief but memorable basketball career in Junior High. She decided not to pursue it, however, after scoring a basket for the opposing team. (They really shouldnt switch sides during halftime as certain players find this confusing.) Shortly thereafter Janette took up dance, an activity that takes an equal amount of talent, but has the added advantage of uniforms with sequins. Besides, no one keeps score at a dance recital. She lives in Chandler, Arizona, with her husband and their five children.
