*** 'All aboard for hijinks, crushes, and a sweet story of banding together.'-Emery Lord, author of Open Road Summer 'I adored this fun and heartfelt book. Liza likes to think of herself as an expert at almost everything, but when it comes to love, she's about to find herself lost at sea. After the Destiny breaks down, all of Liza's best-laid plans start to go awry. And she's especially not interested in Russ, the probably-as-dumb-as-he-is-cute prankster jock whose ex, Demi, happens be Liza's ex-best friend and leader of the Athenas, a show choir that's the band's greatest competition.

She's therefore not interested when her old camp crush, Lenny, shows up on board, looking shockingly hipster-hot. Liza can't imagine senior year without the band, and nothing will distract her from achieving victory. Liza, a drum major in a school marching band that's about to lose all it's funding, knows this is their last chance to save the group.

When Liza discovered that her beloved band was losing funding, she found Destiny, a luxury cruise ship complete with pools, midnight chocolate buffets, and a $25,000 spring break talent show prize. Lauren Morrills Better Than the Best Plan is a fresh, funny, romantic YA novel about a teenage girl who finds an unexpected. The story takes place on a luxury cruise, named Destiny, where a talent show competition is taking place - the prize is 25,000. Lauren Morrill is the author of MEANT TO BE, BEING SLOANE JACOBS, THE TROUBLE WITH DESTINY, MY UNSCRIPTED LIFE, and BETTER THAN THE BEST PLAN. With her trusty baton and six insanely organized clipboards, drum major Liza Sanders is about to take Destiny by storm-the boat, that is. I never wanted this journey to end!' says Morgan Matson, author of Since You've Been Gone, of this fun and irresistible contemporary YA about high school romance & mischief on the high seas.
