Ricky's Story

Ricky Kingston (who is REAL, as a matter of fact) wants a better life. Better brothers, better friends, better looks, better everything. He's nobody, too short, and unimportant. His friend Joey-Joe is (his only friend) fifteen years old and a grade below him. His older brother Corey (known by everyone as Treasure) is perfect in every way. He's got too many brothers and sisters, not enough friends, and his only consonance is his computer, where he spends most of his time.

But Ricky stumbles upon his chance: instant popularity, the pretty new girl, and something that makes him cooler than his older brother. What's the big thing?

Ricky throws a CRAZY party, invites everyone in his grade via Facebook, and plans it with the help of Joey-Joe, Cassidy, a family friend who's gotten in her share of trouble, and even Joe's older sister, Tracy, the party expert.

But when Ricky is as famous as birthday cake, how can he keep his brother and FATHER from knowing about the party, as well as everything that comes with it?

Maybe being popular is harder then it looks...maybe his brother's life isn't perfect...maybe his twin sister Rita was right...secrets are harder to keep then friends.

Recommended for ages 11 and up.
