Too Perfect to Die

"Bring It On", but with murder, this heart-pounding YA thriller follows Jonty, a star cheerleader forced to track down a killer and achieve her dream--before it's too late.

With competition this fierce, bodies are bound to hit the mat...

All Jonty has ever wanted is to lead her cheerleading team, The Exalted Ones, to win a NCA championship. Cheer is not just a sport, it's her legacy. Her mother cheered for T.E.O. before she died, and Jonty would do anything to snatch the crown and honor her mother's memory. This year she has a real shot, finally beating her rival Tommie and becoming the team captain.

But Jonty's perfect season is shattered when Tommie shows up dead on the first day of practice. Now the team is down a flyer and everyone is convinced that Jonty killed her. Everyone except Adam, her co-captain, who was with her the night that Tommie died.

As the season progresses, girls keep dropping like flies, and one thing becomes clear: Someone is sabotaging The Exalted Ones, and they're willing to commit murder to get their way. But with the police still convinced it's her, will Jonty be able to save herself, her team, and her perfect season?
