Description
A contemporary pick-a-path series about life, first crushes and friendship, that lets the reader choose how the story goes!
Mackenzie loves her life in the city. She’s in a band with her bestie, she’s just met a cute boy called Toby, and she doesn’t mind moving between her parents’ places each week. But then her mum decides to move away, and everything changes …
1. When Mack moves to the country with her mum, she starts hanging out with music-mad Laura … and drifting apart from her old best friend, Immy. Are they destined to lose their friendship, especially when Mack’s old band is playing without her?
2. When Mack decides to live with her dad in the city, she has to put up with his control-freak girlfriend moving in too! But maybe the upcoming Battle of the Bands competition – and getting to know the adorable Toby – will be enough of a distraction …
Follow your heart right to the end, or go back and choose all over again.
