(3) YA Once an accomplished competitive figure skater, Hudson's now "Cupcake Queen" of Watonka, New York. After three years of baking and suppressing her painful past--her parents' divorce, lost friends, a botched competition--Hudson's former passion for skating returns, and it affects her current relationships and responsibilities. Hudson evokes empathy in this what-could-have-been story that realistically portrays the overwhelming nature of adolescence.
