    High Plains Book Award — Finalist, Young Adult • MYRCA Northern Lights Award — Shortlisted • SYRCA Snow Willow Award — Shortlisted

    An aspiring teenage DJ must learn how to navigate life when people find out that she's the daughter of a famous singer.

    Fifteen-year-old Delilah “Dizzy” Doucette lives with her dad and brother above their vintage record store, The Vinyl Trap. She’s learning how to spin records from her brother’s best friend, and she’s getting pretty good. But behind her bohemian life, Dizzy and her family have a secret: her mom is the megafamous singer Georgia Waters. When this secret is revealed to the world, Dizzy’s life spins out of control. She must decide what is most important to her — the family she has or the family she wants.
