Bestselling Jacqueline Wilson tells a fairy tale story of the unlikely intertwining of two very different families against a strong and realistic background. Destiny is growing up poor with her mum who does three jobs and struggles to pay the mortgage; Sunset lives in pampered luxury with her parents whose desire for celebrity status overshadows real family happiness. But the two girls are linked by their celebrity Dad. How can they get together and, when they do, how can they persuade all their parents that they really are great friends and sisters?
Who is Julia Eccleshare ?
Synopsis
Sunset lives a life of luxury with her beautiful ex-model mum, her world-famous ex-rocker dad and two little celeb siblings. But life on the red carpet is no compensation for rowing parents, constant nagging, intensive media scrutiny and 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 former 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...
