About the book

Cindy feels she's going to be second-rate all her life. Her older sister Christine has the pretty face, the good body and gets all the cute boys. Cindy just can't win. Then in study hall Cindy meets Ron, an ex-basketball star who's the best actor in high school. He’s just been chosen to play Romeo in the big production of Romeo and Juliet. Cindy can't believe that Ron's really interested in her, Christine's little sister. But this time it seems she's Number One. Suddenly, Cindy's hopes for romance and happiness are crushed when Christine is chosen to play the role of Juliet. It seems that Cindy will lose again... unless she can prove to Ron that she's not second best after all.
