Nikki is suffering from Crush-itis due to her crush on Brandon. While she's not looking, Daisy snatches one of her sausages from her breakfast. Nikki chases her all around the house and into the yard, causing a mess. Brandon comes by to see what Nikki is up to before school and sees she is having trouble keeping Daisy under control. He suggests that he help her teach Daisy a think or two about obedience. Nikki agrees and is happy to hear that Brandon is looking forward to hanging out with her. They're sure to get Daisy to behave more properly. Nikki wonders if Brandon has the same case of Crush-itis as her. First off, I started reading this series when I was younger and just moved along as the books kept coming out. I just want to know how it endsssssss, anyways:

I had barely started cleaning up the huge mess Daisy had made when I had to rush her outside to use the bathroom. Brandon, I’m completely exhausted, and I just got out of bed an hour ago. If Daisy was a toy dog, I swear I’d take out her batteries and throw them away! I grumbled. The drama continues as Nikki tries to figure out how she’s going to spend her summer. Things get even more complicated when she starts to hang out with a cute guy who’s a visiting student. Will this new friendship ruin her relationship with her best friends, Chloe and Zoey, and her crush, Brandon?!" A few weeks ago Brianna’s teddy bear, Hans, accidentally fell into the toilet. A gallon of toilet water splashed all over me while I was screaming.... But neither of those things happened, and the book ended way too soon with a picture of Brandon and Nikki holding Daisy the dog.But the book felt way too short compared to the other installments. And Nikki and Brandon's inevitable relationship is being dragged out a lot longer than it should be. If the author, Rachel, keeps dragging it on, she risks the relationship dynamic becoming as unbearable as the Ross and Rachel romance in Friends(which could've been good had they not dragged it out for all ten seasons). Brianna is supposed to go potty INSIDE but sometimes has accidents OUTSIDE! And Daisy is supposed to go potty OUTSIDE but sometimes has accidents INSIDE!

She’s also facing an unexpected crush catastrophe—there’s a new kid interested in Nikki, but the last thing she wants to do is accidentally hurt Brandon!

My heart is pounding, my palms are sweaty, and the butterflies fluttering around inside my stomach are making me feel a little queasy. Thanks for the advice. But obedience training sounds SUPERintense. I barely make it through the TEN minutes of warm-up exercises in PE class, I muttered in frustration.

Another one shows up a few minutes later of Nikki and André's breakfast, though it looks like they're sharing it instead of eating their own.
