About The Book
A girl starts to like-like her best friend and feel jealous of the girl he’s hanging out with in this book in the new tween middle grade rom-com Spotlight Sprinkles series!
Although she’s bummed that summer is over, Aaliyah is excited for school to start. She hasn’t seen her best friend, Travis, all summer! But when they reunite, Travis looks different—taller and…kind of cute.
It’s different spending time with him too because now all he talks about is soccer! And he’s been hanging out with Harlee like a lot. And she’s much prettier and cooler than Aaliyah. Can Aaliyah get her best friend back? And does she maybe like him as more than a friend?
