When Orla enrols on a prestigious drama course, she is thrown into the spotlight for the very first time. A heart-stopping romance from critically-acclaimed author of SING IF YOU CAN'T DANCE.
Orla has always been the sidekick, never the hero . . .
Until, that is, she secures a funded place at an elite drama course and puts her own dreams first for once in her life. Suddenly, Orla is centre-stage and loving it! But the drama crowd are experienced performers and their parents have shelled out a fortune for them to be on the course. Orla can't help but feel left out - she has to earn her pocket money and her responsibilities at home can't just be ignored.
Then again, doesn't she deserve to want things for herself? Especially when beautiful and funny drama boy, Cass, starts flirting with her . . .
With life-changing auditions around the corner Orla finds herself torn in two by an impossible choice. Should she protect her chosen family, or herself?
