My Share of Sand (A Calabasas Fable)...Slightly Revised Edition
"She's like red velvet cake in human form."
Calabasas, California is the 21st century Camelot. It's the home of Drake, Bieber, Miley, Britney, Selena, various and sundry Kardashians, plus two less-familiar names: high school sophomores Colinda Quarles and Darius Purveyor.
Colinda befriends her new classmate Darius, and they learn they have some things in common: they're smart, they feel like outsiders among their glitzy classmates, they're self-conscious about their backgrounds (she's the daughter of controlling parents, he's a member of the small, ancient Zoroastrian religion) and they're both infatuated with gorgeous cheerleader Templynn Treat.
But deep down they know they stand very little chance of winning her love: Templynn is probably the richest girl in school (her mom is a billionaire fast food mogul), and she's already going out with equally rich Holden Fickler. But when fate draws Templynn into their lives, their worlds start getting turned upside-down.
