  Idol

  Jenna always dreamed of fame –

  now it’s her time to shine…

  Meet Jenna Jonsson and Sadie Laine: two gorgeous, glamorous twenty-somethings who want it all – fame, fortune and love.

  Beautiful Jenna is an international pop star, having won a talent contest and enjoying chart success. Now she’s back from a career break with a renewed ambition to succeed. And when a chance meeting leads to an opportunity to work with a world-famous rock band, Jenna is quick to agree – although her decision is somewhat influenced by Nick Taylor, the band’s drummer and quite possibly the sexiest man Jenna has ever met. But should she mix business with pleasure?

  Meanwhile, Sadie, a gorgeous and talented dancer, and a childhood rival of Jenna's, is still trying to get her big break. Determined to fulfil her dreams of stardom, she jumps at the chance of joining a fabulous stage show in Las Vegas. But is there time for love in her new, busy life?

  Both Jenna and Sadie are about to discover that dreams really can come true …
