Showdown at the Okie-Dokie

Book excerpt: It’s the dead of winter, but Galleria and her Cheetah sisters aren’t feeling the chill. They’re in sunny Houston, where they just played the biggest show of their lives, and are feeling closer than ever to the record deal that will make them famous. But just because this concert is over doesn’t mean the Cheetahs are ready to pack up and head home. There’s a rodeo in town, and Galleria is gonna get the Cheetah Girls up on stage—if she has to rope a bull to do it! As if bucking broncos and tough-talking cowboys weren’t enough trouble, another band accuses the Cheetahs of the worst crime of all: stealing lyrics. But Galleria won’t back down. There’s gonna be a showdown at this rodeo—and the Cheetahs sing best at high noon.
