For Catelyn Cross and the CHILL squad, the chance to attend Nationals is a dream come true. But dreams come with a cost, and this one may have too high of a price. The CHLLL squad must find a way to raise $25,000 to compete, and Catelyn needs an A in geometry. Between swallowing her pride to ask the Monarch Cheerleading squad for help and letting Joshua tutor her in math, Catelyn is spinning out of control. Will she crumble under the pressure or dig deep to uncover that she truly is a Spirit Junkie?
