California, 1938.

Georgia would be pretty happy with her job as a painter in her uncle’s business if it wasn’t for her dream of becoming a cartoon animator. When her application to Disney’s training school is rejected because she’s a woman, she takes on the identity of a man and travels to Los Angeles. Disney hires her as an apprentice, and Georgia steps into a complicated life as George.

On a night out at a swanky Hollywood nightclub with her fellow animators, she meets the beautiful socialite Cara, who suggests they see each other again. Cara, witty and mysterious, is impossible to resist, and Georgia’s mouth speaks a yes when she knows she ought to say no. The job at Disney is as exciting as Georgia has imagined, but her charade as a man is hard to maintain — especially after she falls hard for Cara, who has her own secrets.

Georgia rises quickly in the Disney ranks, but the movie industry is full of ruthless ambition. When Georgia gets on the wrong side of the son of a powerful Hollywood mogul, the lie she has so carefully crafted falls apart. And with it both her dream and her love for Cara.
