On a Slippery Slope - (Hannah Smart) by Melody Fitzpatrick (Paperback)

About the Book

If a super-cute boy (one you really want to impress) assumes that you're a championship skier and snowboarder, is it really that big of a deal if you don't set him straight? When a teensy fib starts snowballing out of control, Hannah Smart realizes she needs cash to keep from being found out. She takes a part-time job at the local TV station where her dad works as the weatherman. After nearly killing a woman (it was an accident!) and then saving her life on air, Hannah unexpectedly finds herself in front of the camera again. Loving the spotlight, Hannah is swept up in the excitement of TV land, but with the school ski trip coming up, she soon realizes that some secrets are almost impossible to keep hidden. But wanting to come clean and doing it are two very different things.

Book Synopsis

But the fib starts to grow, especially when she lands a job on TV and soon Hannah finds herself on thin ice ... will she still have friends when she tells the truth?
