Corrinne Corcoran’s upscale Manhattan life is perfectly on track—until her father announces he’s been laid off and she’s shipped off to Broken Spoke, Texas, to live with her grandparents. All alone in a big public school and forced to take a job shoveling manure, Corrinne is determined to get back to the glamorous life she’s supposed to be living. But as she grudgingly adjusts—making new friends and finding romance along the way—this city girl begins to realize that life without credit cards and shopping sprees may not be as bad as it seems....
In this sparkling debut that flawlessly balances romance and humor, readers will grow to love sharp and sassy Corrinne as she goes on her totally reluctant but completely irresistible journey of self-discovery.
1. You have such a positive outlook on life. What is your advice to people who get down sometimes?
I’m a cheerleader for the football team, but I also try to be a cheerleader for myself. It’s important to root for your own success too.
2. What was your first impression of Corrinne?
That we’d never be friends. She seemed way too glamorous to want to hang with a country girl like me.
3. When did you first start to notice a change in Corrinne once she moved to Broken Spoke?
When she was willing to pee cowgirl style.
4. Are you ever planning on leaving Broken Spoke?
Yes, I am looking into summer art programs in NYC.
5. Do you and Corrinne still keep in touch?
I might be from small town Texas, but we still have the internet, facebook and cell phones. I am constantly in touch with Corrinne.
