Liv, a 12-year-old foster kid, musical marvel, and con artist, combines her talent with street smarts to land herself a spot on America's number one reality TV show, "The Talent."

Propelled through the competition by instinct, cunning, and talent, Liv may have met her match with Donny Wonder, the show's cutthroat producer. Donny uncovers Liv's deception but worries exposing her may damage or even cancel the show. With the show's future in the balance, Liv and Donny must decide if they will be true to the music, their friendship, or their own self-interests. The Talent is a fast-paced story about reality TV, relationships, and what it takes to be honest with yourself.
