Seventeen-year-old Holly Hart wants to
be a star. She moves to Los Angeles from the small town of Cedar
Junction, only to hear she’s too fat and ugly to be a famous
singer.
But when Shell Shocked Records looks
past Holly’s plus-size and less-than-graceful-personality to offer
her a recording contract, Holly cannot believe her good fortune. On
closer inspection, however, the the record execs want Holly to do all
the singing, and a thinner and more beautiful girl, Lacey, would
lip-sync and get all the credit. Holly goes for it because after all,
she wanted to sing.
Contractually bound to secrecy, Holly
is more than happy to sit backstage and write in her journal while
Lacey shimmies in the limelight and basks in the fame. Before she
knows it, Holly is friends with Serena, the pop-star daughter of a
music-mogul, flirting with an intern, and developing a strange
half-friendship with Lacey.
When Grayson Frost, the biggest country
star in America, and coincidentally, a former school bully begins
dating Lacey, Holly hopes that he won’t recognize or torment her.
Through a series of embarrassing and
weird events, Holly gets to know Grayson and learns that he is much
nicer and more mature than he was four years ago. Holly is horrified
when she starts falling for him. When Grayson admits he fell for
Lacey’s voice, what is a girl to do when she can’t legally tell
the truth at the moment when the truth matters the most?

Genre: YA, Romance
Holly Hart has it all: designer
clothes, affluent friends, a recording contract, and she’s dating
the biggest pop star in America.
It’s too bad he can’t be seen with
her in public. It’s even worse that he seems so very cozy with
Lacey, the girl who seems to enjoy stealing Holly’s dream and
taking all the credit for their platinum-selling album.
And Lacey? Well she couldn’t carry a
tune in a bucket, but that hasn’t stopped her from basking in the
glow of the fame and fortune that comes with pretending to be Holly.
Yet, Holly signed a contract vowing to
never reveal her true identity as the girl behind the hit songs. Her
record label doesn’t want anyone to know their teen dream is really
a chubby, insecure girl from Iowa.
Holly needs to focus on finals. She
can’t let herself be distracted by the extremely hot and talented
Grayson Frost or his prevailing attachment to Lacey. This is the deal
Holly made, and she has to honor it no matter how much she hates it.
As if that’s not enough pressure, her
grandparents have come to stay, her mom is dating a guy who makes his
own deodorant, Shell Shocked Records want Holly to distance herself
from Grayson, and she’ll probably end up failing Driver’s Ed.
In a town full of gossip and secrets,
Holly wonders just how much longer she can continue to live a double
life.
When the media gets a little too close
for comfort, both Holly and Lacey are at risk. Soon Holly realizes
her dream isn’t only about her and if she is to ever be truly
happy, she’ll need to find a way past her insecurities.
Filled with laugh out loud and hold
your breath moments, Holly Hearts Headlines is the follow-up to Holly
Hearts Hollywood by Kenley Conrad.
