Lucy Markson has been dragged along to beauty pageants since she could remember, but not for her, for her two sisters. Out of the three siblings, she has been considered the quiet, responsible middle child her whole life. The one with the wild curly dark hair and thick glasses. The sister that blends into the background during the extravagant parties her family is invited to in Mountain Brook, Alabama. It seemed like the trend would only continue for her senior year as well. However, a certain Sam Reeves, her older sister's biggest rival in pageants, comes crashing in to her life and turns everything upside down. Sam is one of the most popular guys in school and discards girls left and right. Lu has been weary of the cheeky brunette since her older sister started pageants, yet the rebellious factor of Sam allures her. After meeting his archenemy's younger sister, Sam devises a proposition that changes everything for Lucy and him. In the midst of this agreement, Lu begins to find the meaning of being her own person and loving herself because of Sam. He in turn, shares his biggest fears and lets Lu in to his not-so-perfect life. Take a trip with Sam and Lucy on this glitter and sparkle filled journey and find out who really takes the crown.
