When Jenny and Austin end up at a March Break leadership camp together, Jenny thinks her week will be miserable.

At school, Jenny Royce is bullied by Grade A jerk, Austin Parks. And now, not only is her tormentor spending March Break at the same retreat, she and Austin are grouped together for the camp’s main assignment! They have to run a stall at a local farmer’s market. The market could be a lot of fun. But when Jenny learns that Austin wants their group’s project to fail, she has to decide if she can risk standing up to him.
