Book Description
Lady Frederica Felton, or Freddie to her friends, is poised to return to Mapleton Manor boarding school for Sixth Form. After a summer at home in Monaco, Freddie is more than ready to see her friends again...and she'll find herself in numerous escapades along the way, collecting wristbands as she goes. Midnight feasts, great escapes and ghost stories—life at Mapleton Manor is anything but boring, especially for someone like Freddie. Whilst fiercely loyal and fun loving, she is the go-to girl for contraband and fashion advice. Freddie is the girl to know. But the next couple of years won't all be fun and games. As well as exam pressure there are rotten teachers to contend with, and a friend Freddie isn't so sure has her best interests at heart... There are difficult choices to be made. First love to experience. Heartbreak to be had. But with her friends at her side and her fearless nature, will Freddie take her world by storm?
