When sixteen-year-old 
Kate Anderson signs up for the New Hampshire Junior State Golf 
Championship, she has no idea how important it is for her to win. But 
when she finds out her family’s beloved golf course is on the verge of 
going broke, the pressure is on to bring home the top prize. Because 
this year, if she can become the first girl to ever win the tournament, 
she’ll earn more than bragging rights and a college scholarship – she’ll
 become famous. And with fame comes a gigantic media blitz, and that 
type of hype is exactly the prize her family needs to bring back the 
crowds and chase away the threats of bank foreclosure. Unfortunately,
 golf is a game of focus and Kate’s distractions are mounting by the 
day: her growing crush on her best friend Scott and dealing with the 
local bully seem tough enough without the extra distraction of the cute 
British exchange kid her dad hires for the summer. But when vandals 
damage the golf course and Scott is accused of the crime, the stakes 
suddenly become bigger than any tournament. To clear Scott’s name, Kate 
takes on the responsibility of finding the culprit before the course is 
vandalized again. Otherwise, winning the tournament won’t even be on the
 table . . . and neither will a future with Scott.
