Imagine planning revenge on your archenemy, fighting to keep your best friend, struggling for the love of your first crush, and deciding if you want to meet your biological mother (who just so happens to live across the world). And that's just the beginning. When twelve-year-old Emily Vern's meatballs go missing from her lunch bag, she blames her archenemy, the popular Madison Snow. Emily vows revenge even though her best friend, Abby, insists that Madison is innocent. Unfortunately, Emily's attempts at getting even always miss her target. Destroying a birthday cake and some light locker vandalism had sounded like such a good idea for revenge at the time, but only seemed to set off a chain of disastrous events.

Just when things begin to go Emily's way, Abby rejects her, she's blackmailed, she might lose her chance at love, and-even more shocking-her birth mother from Ireland unexpectedly shows up! Join Emily as she makes decisions that could mean the difference between happiness and trouble.
