As Wave tries to introduce Dan to the world of theater, he discovers that the boy has an unexpected talent: a natural gift for acting.

Additionally, Wave has a nagging feeling that he knows him from somewhere, though he can't quite place where. As Wave works to spark Dan's interest in theater, he becomes captivated by the newcomer's hidden talent and mysterious personality.

(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right?
