A renovation plan with unexpected complications

Melisa and Roxy begin as classmates with opposite interests and little patience for each other. Their parents’ engagement puts them on a path toward becoming stepsisters, so the girls team up to derail the planned family home with mishaps at the renovation site. The central joke is also the source of the story’s change: the more effectively they work together to create chaos, the more their view of one another begins to shift. This middle-grade family story explores blended-family anxieties through a contest between the girls’ resistance to change and their growing connection.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Middle-grade readers interested in stories about blended families and becoming stepsiblings.
  • Readers who enjoy rival classmates, comic schemes, and sibling relationships.

Book overview

Two classmates scheme to break their parents up before they get married and ruin the girls' lives forever in this hijinks-filled middle grade novel.

Melisa Flores and Roxy Romero are not fans of each other. Roxy is sporty while Meli is artsy. Meli keeps her friend circle small while Roxy is pals with everyone. Their little brothers might get along like fruit in a delicious smoothie, but Meli and Roxy do not mix.

So when their parents announce their engagement, the girls are horrified. Previous experience has told them they'll never be friends, much less sisters. Meli and Roxy decide they have to do something to prevent this future blended family from ruining all their lives.

The girls scheme to show their parents exactly how incompatible their families are by sabotaging the renovations of the house they're supposed to live happily ever after in. From home improvement store catastrophes to disastrous paint jobs, it's clear the girls are good teammates when it comes to causing chaos. Could it be enough to convince their parents to call off the wedding?

But as the girls plot to show their parents exactly how incompatible their families are, they start to actually like each other--causing major complications when their plan begins working a little too well...
