Riley, an 18-year-old overweight girl from a small western town, lands first place in an open audition and comes to Hollywood to fight for the female lead in a Grade-A movie from Starlight Studios — the biggest film company in Hollywood. Riley is humiliated for her size and her origins, yet she wins the role through sheer acting talent, and falls in love with Asher, a gifted child-actor prodigy. When she is framed for theft, stripped of the role, and blacklisted, she discovers she is in fact the only daughter of Adrian Vale, Starlight's late founder. The man who threw her out, Everett, is both Asher's father and the one who seized Adrian Vale's inheritance and concealed the truth of his death. She must take back both the role and her inheritance — and make Hollywood admit that an overweight girl can be a leading lady too.
