Aaliyah (The Divas)

Diamond, India, Veronique, and Aaliyah are fifteen-year-old high school sophomores on their way to becoming the hottest new group to hit gospel musicâ€”The Divas. That is, if they win the team talent competition. Now, the fourth book in the series follows Aaliyah, as she comes face to face with a secret from her past..

Straight-A student and â€œbrainiacâ€ of the group, Aaliyah is an only child living with her father, the deputy Chief of Police in Los Angeles. Even though Aaliyah isnâ€™t interested in singing, sheâ€™s shown a remarkable, natural talent since childhood. It takes a bit of persuading to get Aaliyah to be a part of the Divas, but she gives in, and joins the group to be close to her friends. During one of their rehearsals, the girls hear a song by Zena, a successful African American singer. All the other girls are inspired and imagine themselves being as successful one dayâ€”except for Aaliyah, who turns off the CD and grumbles that they can find a better role model. Then, when Aaliyah learns that Zena will be attending their performanceâ€”accompanied by her fatherâ€”her whole world comes crashing down. And all of her friends, whoâ€™d been told that Aaliyahâ€™s mother died when she was a baby, suddenly realize where her natural singing ability came fromâ€¦.
