This kicks off with single mother Layne being entered by her mother into a new reality TV show called "Rising Star". It is like The Voice meets American Idol where the contestants have to sing and then one of the judges or more will raise their flag - saying "I WANT YOU". Layne is one of the oldest ones there and doesn't think she has a chance but when she arrives for her audition - all the judges want her. She should go for her first pick - music producer Felix but she is instead drawn to country singer Beau Tanner. Surprisingly Layne does pick Beau and since she has no interest in or knowledge of country music, she is going to have to work harder than the other team members. More so since she keeps being put up against her roommate who is a country music diva. But Layne has heaps of natural talent and the crowds love her. And so it seems does Beau - but relationships between judges and contestants are a big no-no. Can Layne remain focused on the show or will the rumours of her and Beau be her undoing? Music Notes was not only a fast-paced look behind the scenes of reality TV world, the author also gave readers the choice to choose their own ending for Layne - she can either go through the Safe Door or the Dangerous Door.
