Give Me a Break

From the Files of Madison Finn #18

by Laura Dower, Stephanie Power (Illustrator)

Things in Far Hills are starting to get frosty. Madison's dad has offered to take her on a ski trip to Big Mountain, but there's a catch-she can only take one friend! When she has to decide between Fiona and Aimee, things go from frosty to downright icy. With a mountain to ski, a cute instructor to crush on, and some friendships to thaw, Maddie's winter break is shaping up to be one fast ride.
