Teenager Chloe longs for a perfect life, one where she fits in, where Mum truly loves her and she isn't forced to torture the piano any more. Above all she longs for the day when Lewis Absolutely Gorgeous Grant, the boy who every girl in school wants to date, is totally and besottedly hers.On a visit to the shopping centre Chloe bumps into Lou, her double from a parallel world. On the surface, their lives are the same, except Lou’s version is so much better. She has everything which Chloe craves; the clothes, the confidence, and most importantly, the adoration of Lewis. When Lou suggests that they swap lives for a while, Chloe jumps at the chance.But when things don’t go according to plan, Chloe begins to wonder if Lou had another reason for wanting the swap. And she’s forced to confront the question she never thought she’d have to ask: is her so-called perfect life really all it’s cracked up to be?
