The Main Dish

“Mom left, and I stayed still, trying to wrap my mind around what had just happened. I wanted to play in the festival so badly. It would have been the perfect start to my junior year of high school. I wouldn’t have been invisible anymore.”

Scarlet Williams is on the cusp of her dreams. She’ll be the youngest person ever to play violin at the highly attended Summerset Festival. The popular crowd will definitely notice her now. Especially Finn O’Neal. But her joy is short-lived when her little sister gets cast in the nationally televised cooking show, Young Gourmet. Her parents make her give up her chair so they can spend their summer in L.A. The spotlight she worked so hard for shines bright on Sadie. Scarlet will do whatever she can to keep the attention of her friends at school. But is she willing to pay the price that kind of attention will cost?

The Main Dish explores the bond of sisters and the pull of fame. It addresses what happens when the success of someone eclipses one’s own success.
