Thousands of girls apply to join the famous Towers Model Agency every year, but super-agent Gigi Towers selects only a half dozen girls -- the very luckiest -- to live with her as she develops them for stardom. Enter Jane, Gigi's plain and orphaned fifteen-year-old granddaughter, who would give anything to trade places with the girls who claim Gigi's attention. But behind their perfect façades each girl hides painful secrets.

Campbell -- the struggling underdog, terrified that Gigi will send her home, but who has nowhere to go. Sophia -- a rising star burning too brightly whose wild behavior threatens to destroy not only her career, but the entire Towers agency. As they wrestle for their place in the household, tenuous friendships form. But jealousy, gossip and cruel pranks lead to a shocking outcome and everyone, including Gigi, must face the truth about what fame really costs.

When Jane, Gigi’s plain and orphaned granddaughter, moves in with them, she may as well be invisible. But while Jane would give anything to trade places with the girls who claim all of Gigi’s attention, behind their perfect facades each girl hides painful secrets and crushing pressure to preserve her place in Gigi’s house.Among these are fiercely competitive Maya, the daughter of famously accomplished parents whose expectations of Maya are so high that the pressure drives her to the edge of her physical and mental capacity, and naïve Campbell, who struggles with her weight and is terrified that Gigi will send her home but who has nowhere to go. The most prominent of all is the exquisite Sophia, the agency's superstar who all the girls idolize and adore, but who lands the hardest when her star finally falls.
