The only problem? Ollie has major stage fright, a symptom of his anxiety disorder. As pressure from performing, social media rumors, and his romantic life rises, his mental health starts to spiral. So he's surprised at how grounded he feels when he collaborates with his wildly talented--and distractingly cute--touring partner, Jesse. Music has always helped Ollie through hard times, but he's going to have to be more vulnerable than he ever thought possible to find self-acceptance in the glow of the spotlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeaturing characters from Maya Ameyaw's acclaimed debut \u003cem\u003eWhen It All Syncs Up\u003c\/em\u003e, this story takes readers into the green room, immersing them in the vivid behind-the-scenes world of touring musicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMAYA AMEYAW\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e is a former bookseller and currently works as a community arts writing instructor.
