Rock music. A broken family. Difficult sisters. A road trip. The blush of first love. Red Velvet Crush has everything that fans of Eleanor & Park and Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist are looking for.
Teddy Lee has always shied away from attention. Her younger sister Billie is the one who stands out: brave, outgoing, and so beautiful that people can’t help but stare. Instead, Teddy Lee prefers writing songs and playing her dad’s old guitar. Until she gets the opportunity to start her own band. Suddenly Teddy Lee has everything she ever wanted—the band, the stage, and the irresistible drummer who only has eyes for her. It’s finally her chance to shine, to share her music with the world. Unless Billie steals the spotlight—and the boy—just like she always does.
Christina Meredith has always wondered, "How fun is it to drive if you always know exactly where you're going to end up?" She lives in Sausalito, California. This is her first book.
“[Meredith] balances adolescent wit with lyrical prose ad Teddy finds strength within her talent…this fast-paced story of sibling rivalry and betrayal should appeal to a wide teen audience.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Meredith here explores the tentative steps of first love and the complicated relationships some siblings share…Readers will appreciate the book’s exploration of the bonds of siblings and music as a means of self-expression.” — School Library Journal
