Jenelle Taylor is an everyday girl, with a dream job at the biggest music TV network in Australia. "Boybands have never really been my thing," she says, oblivious to what, or who, is waiting for her in London. When MTV sends her and fellow presenter, Angus, on tour with the biggest boyband in the world, One Direction, flames are quickly ignited between the shy TV presenter and the charming Harry Styles. With 5SOS as the supporting act, and a very persist Ashton Irwin at every turn, interfering love interests, lies and betrayal, lead relationships to be tested at new limits. Can Harry and Jen beat the odds and overcome every curveball thrown at them, or does love between two very different people eventually become too tiresome for the chase?
