About the book

No girl resembling Lita Perez or Chicky Quintanilla has ever clinched the title in the history of the Miss Meteor beauty pageant. Yet, Lita's aspiration to compete is driven by more than just a desire to redefine beauty standards, just as Chicky's motivation to support her stems from more than merely mending their fractured friendship. The essence of their journey to the Miss Meteor crown transcends mere perfection; it's about baring your true self to the world and embracing the bits of you that others might not comprehend. To etch their names as the most extraordinary underdog victors in pageant lore, Lita and Chicky need to let bygones be bygones and envision a future where girls like them aren't just sufficient—they're unparalleled.
