Ronnie, Fleur, and Claude—known throughout the cosmiverse as Les Bambinos Dangereuses, or LBD for short—have just finished another miserable year at Blackwell School and have absolutely no plans for the summer. Plus, Ronnie’s boyfriend, Jimi Steele, has been a completely selfish loser lately. Once again, life’s harsh!
But out of the blue, salvation arrives in the form of free tickets, courtesy of the LBD’s rock star friend Spike Saunders, to the biggest party of the year—Astlebury Music Festival! At long last, the LBD are on their way to Snogfest Central!
But can the LBD handle a full-blown weekend of loud music and a zillion gorgeous boys? Will Ronnie ditch Jimi for the luscious lifeguard who seems smitten with her? Will they ever find Spike in the VIP tent? And will their “festival chic” wardrobes survive the mud and the portaloos?
It’s anybody’s guess, but one thing is for sure: Any festival with the LBD is guaranteed to be live and fabulous.
