Fifteen-year-old Mohana Prasad is as normal as an Indian girl can be. She is barely five-foot-three, and has a hopeless crush on the most popular guy in school. But there is something that sets her apart from the millions of other girls in the “background.” She has a way with words.
After winning a contest, she becomes the head songwriter for Jamie West. The pop superstar used to be Mohana’s best friend; but now that she has become famous, Jamie doesn’t have time for Mohana, leaving her feeling like an outcast. That is until Mohana gets the opportunity of a lifetime.
Will Mohana triumph and show everyone who doubted her why she deserves a spot on the stage? Or will she fall and crumble to the pressure like hundreds have done before her?
