It's Tess Baxter's senior year, and she has every intention of getting the lead role in the school play, Romeo and Juliet-and snagging Trevor Bello, the leading man. But when her dream role goes to her arch-rival and she is cast as the frumpy nurse instead, Tess must swallow her pride, do battle against an evil genius, and even become a little bit devious herself to win the heart of her Romeo.Tess finds herself in a fat suit and a scuzzy gray wig while hated head cheerleader Jude Mauvais gets to wear the gorgeous dress, recite the gorgeous monologue, and kiss the more-than-gorgeous Trevor. Meanwhile, Tess's best friend, Olivia, is going off the deep end, and her guy friend, Charlie, won't reveal the identity of his mystery crush. Instead of enjoying the perfect senior year she's planned, Tess finds herself:--enduring humiliating rehearsals;--almost-but-not-quite stalking Trevor;--visiting a voodoo priestess in Baton Rouge;--becoming the victim of a way-uncool prank involving her butt, a camera phone, and a mass text message; --and twice (!) kissing boys before she knows whether they will kiss her back.But by swallowing her pride (and embracing the fat suit), Tess becomes the ingenue of her real life ... and finds the real-life Romeo of her dreams.The authors are sisters who both live in Austin, Texas. This is their first novel.
