Crown and Sash

Jillian Andrews has won so many titles she could do pageants in her sleep. Or at least that’s how she feels most days. 

Between her solid work ethic and the guidance of her coach Ashleigh, Jillian has become one of the best junior competitors in the greater Atlanta area. Despite that, though, everything is about to be turned upside down with one short phrase: Welcome to my world. 

At first the idea of a pageant where brand-new competitors are brought on stage with pageant pros sounds like an exciting challenge for the 14-year-old beauty queen. But when Jillian learns that Ashleigh’s less than polished neighbor Ryan is going to be the one to compete beside her on stage, it’s almost too much. But with her winning streak on the line, Jillian has her work cut out for her. Will long practice hours and determination be enough? Can Ashleigh really get the scruffy Ryan cleaned up so he’ll be ready to take the stage? More importantly, will the unlikely pair allow their differences to ruin their chances at competing before even taking the stage? With pageant day fast approaching, Jillian knows this will truly be her make-or-break moment.
