This book is really funny so far. It's about this girl whose parents are separated(not divorced) so the oldest daughter, Zahra, moves in with her dad because she is trying to get her parents back together. She is a great baker and plans to start her own business when she gets older and she will call it the Sweet Tooth. The only thing that she is excited about during this time is her boyfriend Rico. He is a bit mysterious and sometimes cancels at the last minute. Her parents send her to group therapy when they catch her and Rico together because they think she is having a hard time with their separation. Which she is because her mothers parents have come from Pakistan to break her parents up and convert them all into "MOTs" the books word not mine. Zahra is furious with her grandparents for doing this and she is resisting them all the way. By the way she is half Pakistani and half Scottish. Group therapy is stupid at first but then she meets two girls, Kali and Syd, that she has to do a group bonding activity with. They bond and become friends. Later they discover that they all are dating the same guy and they are pissed. They decide that they must get revenge and they totally trash his beloved car and then try to sell it for cheap cheap, it's a charger and they are "selling" it for $200. I have no idea how bad that is cause I know nothing about cars but from what the book said, it's bad. So they get their revenge and someone in their group hears about it and asks them if they can check if her boyfriend is cheating, and she will pay them. The girls get an idea to start a business for this and when they do it takes off. They only get jobs from references because they need to keep a low profile. Even so they are raking in the cash. While working for Love Inc. she also has to juggle her parents separation and the Pakistani guy her grandmother is pushing on her. With all this going on she is still doing business, hanging with her friends, and maybe finding a guy. Can't wait to read more, this book is great.
