It’s summer break at New York College, but that doesn’t mean assistant residence hall director Heather Wells can kick back and relax. The students may have gone home, but Fischer Hall is as busy as ever.
Only instead of college freshmen, Heather’s got a dorm full of squealing thirteen- and fourteen-year-old girls—the first ever “Tania Trace Teen Rock Camp,” hosted by pop sensation (newly married to heartthrob Jordan Cartwright, Heather’s ex) Tania Trace.
But when the producer of the reality television show that’s filming Tania’s every move at the camp ends up dead, and it becomes clear Tania was the intended victim, Grant Cartwright, head of Cartwright Records, turns to his son, family black sheep and private investigator Cooper Cartwright, for help, desperate to keep his new daughter-in-law—and company’s highest earning star—alive.
Heather knows perfectly well she’s supposed to leave the detecting to Cooper, her ex’s big brother and her own brand new fiancé. But with hysterical mini divas-in-training freaking out all around her—not to mention their mothers —how can she help but get involved? Especially when Tania Trace herself begins to confide in Heather, revealing a secret that may be a little more “real” than Cartwright Records ever bargained for.
And if an added bonus to solving the crime herself happens to be that Heather can convince Cooper to bury the hatchet with his family and agree to a large wedding, and not the elopement he’s been insisting on, so all of Heather’s friends can come, then maybe putting her own life on the line to save Tania’s just might turn out to be worth it….
I’m a huge Meg Cabot fan and I absolutely adore her Heather Wells series. I inhaled it years ago and have been ever so hopeful for another book so that I can drool all over Cooper Cartwright all over again. I adored him in the series leading up to the third book and loved him even more (yes, it’s possible) in Big Boned. When I heard that she was coming out with another Heather Wells book (thanks to Book Chic for the heads up), I was happy as can be.
When I went to the Passion and Prose event, I got to chat with Meg Cabot herself very briefly about the next book. She’s still writing it but she said that it’s going well and she hopes to have it finished soon. There’s an excerpt for Size 12 and Ready to Rock in the back of the paperback version of Overbite so make sure you get your hands on a copy and get reading because it’ll make you squeal with glee (well, I squealed and my daughter looked at me like I was a crazy woman). There’s so much to look forward to with this book and I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy. I’ve got ants in my pants and I’m gonna do a boogie dance pretty soon.
This book comes out July 10, 2012 so we have just a few months to wait so come do the ants in your pants dance with me. =)
Who’s as excited for this book as I am, and Book Chic too?

I’m so looking forward to this book too! I’ve been waiting for such a long time it seems!
😀
I am sooooooo looking forward to the new Heather Wells book. Heather is a riot, and Cooper is one of my favorite guys from Meg’s books. I’m also excited that there’ll be a fifth Heather Wells book coming out next year. I can’t wait until July 10 because not only will the next installment in the Heather Wells series be out, but Susan Elizabeth Phillips’s new book about Lucy Jorik (finally, she gets her own book!) will be released that day. Squee!!!
