Katie longs to be popular, just like her older sister Keira, but instead she's picked on by the girls at school. Katie's best friend and family cat Scottie doesn't help the situation when he creates havoc at Keira's sixteenth birthday party, leaving Katie to take all the blame. Katie's only allies are her three best friends, Dani, April and Hilary, and the most perfect guy she's ever met... Jared White. Jared also happens to be the lead guitarist in a popular local band. The only way Katie can get Jared to see her as more than just a friend, and also show everyone she's actually pretty awesome, is by entering the Battle of the Bands. But as the performance date nears, Katie realises she might not be in it for the right reasons, and it might only be her friends that suffer. Does she carry on at the risk of hurting those most loyal to her, or does she dare to be herself, risking her chance of stardom? Only Scottie has the answer...
