Overview

Meet Holly Meredith. She's thirteen years old and in eighth grade. She has a little sister, Carrie, and a mom who calls her 'Holly Heart' because she was born on Valentine's Day. And she has a best friend, Andie. Now that Holly's mom has remarried, the house is bursting with kids. And Holly has to share her room with super-snoopers Carrie and Stephie, who are reading her ultra-secret diary! Meanwhile, Holly's dad invites Holly and Carrie to spend Christmas in California. Before they leave, Holly sees Jared giving a present to Paula Miller. Is Jared two-timing her again? Then Holly meets Sean, a cute California surfer. Should Holly just forget about Jared for the holidays?

When she goes to visit her father in California for Christmas, Holly has to deal with her feelings about the boyfriend she leaves behind in Colorado, her snoopy younger sister, and her new stepmother.
