Desperate to be popular, Noah lies to his parents so he can have a party, but it spirals disastrously out of control and ends up all over social media and the news
One night, on his way home, Noah bumps into his crush, Saskia and invites her to his seventeenth birthday party. Only problem is his parents have absolutely banned parties. But then one weekend Noah and his fifteen-year-old sister Ruby are left home alone...
The party starts out as the best night of Noah's life, but as things spiral out of control, Saskia admits she accidentally shared the invitation on social media ...
A brilliant blend of romance, drama and comedy, all propelled by the desire to fit in but also work out who you are and who you want to be.
