But Cassie's mom loves Dino Cavalli, and Cassie has got used their chaotic lifestyle (she even feels a bit sorry for kids whose parents are still married and so just get the one Christmas). But when Cassie falls for Dino's protege at the same time as Dino's behaviour starts to spiral out of control, she begin to realize that the consequences for this step-family could be fairly disastrous... Another brilliant teen read from Deb Caletti - you'll be laughing out loud one minute, and weeping the next..
