The Secret Diamond Sisters
Three sisters’ lives change drastically when they leave their small hometown to move in with their estranged father at his casino hotel in Las Vegas. Readers get to experience the beauty and the facade of living in Vegas through the eyes of distinctly different siblings: Savannah, Courtney, and Peyton. Each girl offers a unique perspective on her spoiled high-school peers and the decadent lifestyles that surround them. The exciting—and often terrifying—exploration of the Vegas strip is tempered by the more relatable plotline of the sisters trying to figure out their past. Sexy and often electrifying, this novel suits its wild Vegas setting and will entertain more-mature teen readers. Gossip Girl meets The Princess Diaries in a city that never sleeps.
