Indigo Summer, her best friend Jade, and other members of the dance squad experience more ups and downs of high school life.

Deal with it

The Pact

Indigo Summer (Kimani Tru)

Trouble Follows

Jade Morgan expects her parents to get back together until she learns that her father is getting remarried and she is to be a bridesmaid, and meanwhile her new boyfriend, Terrence, is definitely hiding something from her.

Jaded

Indigo Summer starts to doubt her role in her boyfriend Marcus Carter's future, now that he has received his acceptance letter from Harvard and a beautiful pre-med student catches his eye on a campus visit.

Step up

When Marisol Garcia, a new student at a competitive performing arts high school, is chosen to take part in a dance contest, she becomes obsessed with winning and risks losing her friends, her good grades, and her place at the school.

Ambitious

Break up for the summer...That's the deal Indigo Summer makes with her boyfriend, Marcus Carter. That way, they can both enjoy their vacations, no guilt, no questions asked. Not that Indigo isn't worried when Marcus heads to Texas to spend time with his estranged mother––kissing Marcus goodbye is hard enough, and who knows who'll be kissing him in Houston? But Indigo barely has time to think about her temporarily ex–boyfriend by the time she gets to Chicago. She's hanging out with her cool cousin, who lives alone at seventeen and has her own life––a life Indigo thought she wanted, until things get way out of hand. She needs Marcus, but he has his own thing going on...and his mother wants him to stay with her permanently.Maybe it's time for a new pact.

Fifteen-year-old Indigo Summer's world finally seems to be going in the right direction: She hooks up with the star linebacker on the high-school football team, gets a date for homecoming and makes the high-school dance squad all in the same week. But sometimes things are just too good to be true.
