Bristol Palin finished third in ABC's 'Dancing With the Stars', but she hasn't finished trying to claw her way to the top.

The 20-year-old daughter of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin takes several shots at rival conservative daughter Meghan McCain, 26, her mother Cindy McCain and other frenemies in her new tell-all memoir.

Her book 'Not Afraid of Life: My Journey So Far', co-written with Nancy French, is due out this week from William Morrow, but ABC News has had an early look at the tell-all.

According to ABC, Ms Palin writes that the first time she met Meghan McCain, the young woman 'ignored us during the entire visit'.

This was just before Arizona Senator John McCain had officially recognized Sarah Palin as his running mate for vice president, but Ms Palin wrote that she 'had a sneaking suspicion I might need to watch my back.

'Every time we saw Meghan, she seemed to be constantly checking us out, comparing my family to hers and complaining. Oh the complaining'.

In the years since 2008, Ms McCain has fostered her own time in the limelight, appearing frequently as a young conservative pundit in media, blogging for The Daily Beast and constantly updating her 112,000 Twitter followers.

On June 17, the firebrand tweeted: '"Hi, I'm Meghan McCain" is in no way, shape or form a pickup line. Trust me honey, you'd know it if I was hitting on you'.
