At Jones University, a woman’s education always comes first. That’s the model Ellie Gallagher is determined to follow. With less than a year of school to go, she juggles her commitments to her studies, her job, and her a cappella group gracefully. When she’s paired with fellow senior Jolene Weiss on a class project, sly glances and flirtation quickly replace thoughts of homework.

But graduation can’t arrive soon enough for Jolene. Longing to be free of university life, she’s busy trying to snag a job on a political campaign. Add to that the fact that she’s in a different a cappella group than Ellie. Though music was their first bond, the rivalry of a cappella and the uncertainty of graduation may force them apart.
