When she lands an improbable audition for the competition show The Sing Along, she knows she has to give the producers what they want, because this is her last shot. If only she could figure out what that was. Of course she's going to sing her heart out, but should she let herself fall for Benji, the "Crowd Favorite," and give them a showmance they won't forget? Can she fend off the advances of the powerful celebrity judge without getting eliminated from the competition? And what about that incredibly grumpy musical producer, Nick, who is always criticizing her? Ok, he calls it "advice" as if he's trying to help. But he's driving Hazel crazy. When the curtain is unexpectedly pulled back on Hazel's past and all the things she has pretended to be begin to spill out into the spotlight, is there any chance the real Hazel Fine can still find what she's looking for?
