How to Get Dirt

Pickles Bartley has always wanted one thing—to have a family of her own. In foster care since the age of three, she's had more than her fair share of bad homes. There's no way she is about to give up her new home with Miranda and David; she is determined to have them adopt her—even if it means following her friend Prudence's advice: "You have to be ready and form a plan if you want them to keep you." So they do. In one of her old foster homes, Prudence blackmailed her foster father when she caught him kissing a pretty woman. Prudence insists that Pickles does the same in a four step operation called "How to Get Dirt."
