Cat's always been the perfect girl next door. Thoughtful friend. Supportive girlfriend. Surrogate mother to her three younger siblings, a great help to her dad since her mum died. But now Cat's facing some major dilemmas. A game of Truth, Dare, Kiss or Promise lands her in hot water when she's asked a truth she can't reveal. On top of this she doesn't want to hurt her boyfriend by telling him the truth, but she knows it's over between them. Is it right to tell lies to protect people or keep the peace? Can the truth be too hurtful? Cat tries to sort all of this out and in doing so discovers a lot about herself and others.
Lia has everything -- a glamorous home and family, good friends, great looks and brains -- and she has remained kind and unpretentious in spite of it. However, when she pulls the school heart throb in a game of Truth, Dare, Kiss or Promise, she alienates 'teen queen' Kaylie who was after Jonno for herself. Kaylie and her friends start a campaign of bullying against her -- the nasty, underhand kind where rumours are spread, threats sent, secrets exposed and confidence undermined. Soon Lia begins to question everything -- who she really is, why these girls have got it in for her and who her real friends are !
Everything's about to change for Cat. She's moving house, so she'll have a room of her own at last, and her dad's about to marry Jen, which means a shopping trip to London and a chance to meet up with her new mates, Nesta, Lucy, Izzie and TJ, as well as see Jamie. But nothing goes as expected -- Cat's dream room looks like a non-starter, Jamie does a disappearing act, and wedding plans fall apart. How will Cat cope, and will she keep her promise to reveal a hidden secret to her friends?

She questions everything to do with relationships, and looks closely at what she wants from a boyfriend: is it escape, companionship, trust or someone to turn to? With the support of her friends, she takes steps to discover what she truly values in her life.
