Danielle Cimorelli Taking Charge:A Twisted World by Mermaid_Cim

So you think you know everything there is to know about Cimorelli? Think again. Danielle has been the youngest sister since her birth in 2000. While her bandmates/sisters have appreciated her for all she has done, Dani feels like she could do more for the band. You know what has happened with their latest stuff including Hearts On Fire and Photograph. But what if, Dani was leader? What if things got so twisted? Well, this is where this story takes place. In a twisted world, Dani finds out that she is now the oldest member and leader of the band, Lauren is the 2nd oldest, Amy the 3rd oldest, Lisa the 3rd youngest, Katherine the 2nd youngest and Christina now the baby sister. Dani is now 23, Lauren is 21, Amy is 20, Lisa is 19, Katherine is 17 and Christina is now 15. [these are not their real ages obviously, but for this twisted story, you'll see] The band is also set up a little different in this world. They all play guitar, piano and drums. Dani also plays bongo drums and flute. Lauren plays violin, fiddle, tambourine. Amy plays harmonica. Lisa is the main drummer still. Katherine is the main pianist/keyboardist now and Christina does harp as well as some keys/piano. Amy, Dani and Lauren are the main guitarists. So how will this story work? Despite the twisted world, It'll be like any other Cimorelli day, except that Dani is leader and the oldest, while Christina is now the youngest. Read the prologue to find out.

Heart & Soul by mistyrider921

Erika Taylor is the complete opposite of her geeky, science- and technology-driven family. She writes songs and creates the backing tracks for them, but no one in her family knows that. Especially her sister, who is obsessed with a show called "Choosing Right", and of course, secretly applied for her sister to be in it, while Erika had dreams of attending a small school for producing music outside of her parent's knowledge. And, as it so happens, she gets chosen to be one of the competitors on the show. Now, she has to spend a long thirty-two weeks convincing a boy to either fall in love with her or make sure she never catches feelings for him. When it comes down to it, can she keep the hundreds of secrets from everyone she knows or does time tell all? DISCLAIMER: please don't steal my idea, storyline, or the alternate universe I've created (although I'd probably be flattered), and most of the songs in this book are mine (you'll know which ones aren't but those aren't mine to begin with), so please don't steal those either because those are really hard to write
