"Bring It On meets She Drives Me Crazy, from the authors of Call Your Boyfriend.
Oak Haven High doesn't have cheerleaders, they have queerleaders.
It's become a school superstition that if you make the team, you're out (or will soon come out) as queer. But rumour has it that cheer captain, Davie, has been actively recruiting queer members only. Davie is accused of discrimination and she's given an ultimatum: recruit a straight athlete for the team or the funding for their competitive cheer season will take a major tumble.
Enter Kendall Hayes, the edgy, mysterious, and – most importantly – straight new girl. When Davie recruits her, she thinks the problem is solved. Until she finds out Kendall's actually bisexual.
Now Kendall and Davie are faced with having to keep her sexuality secret until Nationals, which only gets more complicated when they start falling for each other. Can Kendall stay in the fake closet long enough to save the squad? Or will Davie find the courage to love her new crush out loud, even if it might mean the end of the queerleaders?"
