Description

Jade and Becky have always been best friends; inseparable and often indistinguishable. But when a spiteful comment from a awful ex pushes Jade to the edge, she begins to see that she has always been second best in everything. When the school election offers her the chance to finally be number one, Jade learns just how far she is willing to go to be better than her closest friend.
