Book description
Sunset lives a life of luxury with her beautiful ex-model mum, her
world-famous rock star dad and her two little celebrity siblings. But
life on the red carpet is no compensation for parents who constantly
argue, intensive scrutiny from the media, and and having no real friends.
Destiny, on the other hand, is an only child living on a rundown
estate with a sickly but devoted mum who constantly tells her that
she's really the daughter of a famous rock star . . .
When the two girls meet in unlikely circumstances, they are
surprised to find in each other something they've been missing all
their lives . . .
