The Plot :
Meet teen “ Felony Melanie ” years before the movie Sweet Home Alabama in this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy .
Summer is almost over , so it ’ s time for fun ! Jake and his buddies are fixing up old cars to destroy in the Pigeon Creek demolition derby . After all , what ’ s more fun than smashing into things ?
Girls don ’ t do demolition derby . Everyone says so . But Melanie is tired of sitting on the sidelines . Why should the guys have all the fun ? She can smash up a car as well as anyone !
The guys don ’ t want a girl on their turf , and it ’ s not easy for a broke teenager like Melanie to find and fix up an old car . She recruits helpers and unearths an old junker , but everyone from Jake to the sheriff wants her off the track .
Is the town ready for a female demolition derby driver ? Is anybody ever ready for Felony Melanie ?
An Excerpt
Melanie stepped in front of Jake . “ Fine . You don ’ t have time for me ? Maybe I don ’ t have time for you either . I ’ m not going to wait around to cheer from the sidelines while you boys have all the fun .”
She stood as tall as her little frame would allow . “ I ’ ll get my own car for the demolition derby . Then we ’ ll see what ’ s what .” Jake stared , his mouth half open . She had to be joking . Sniggers erupted from Clinton and Eldon . Melanie swung toward them , her hands fisted on her hips .
“ What ’ s so funny ?” “ No-nothing ,” Clinton choked out . Eldon slapped his knee . “ Just trying to picture you manhandling a big old junk car around the demolition lot . Or would that be girl-handling ?”
“ You going to sit on a phone book ?” Clinton doubled over in laughter .
Melanie spun on her heels . “ Come on , girls , we need to find a car .”
