DEDICATION - A SERIES

Teleplay by Nicola Kraus
Series Created by Marlo Hunter & Nicola Kraus

Based on the bestselling novel Dedication by Nicola Kraus & Emma McLaughlin

Directed by Marlo Hunter


Her boyfriend disappeared before prom only to resurface years later as the biggest rock star on the planet – famous for endless songs about her – but now KATE HOLLIS finally has the chance to confront their unfinished past and reclaim her future.

Fueled by an original pop-rock soundtrack and the promise of an 80s nostalgia fix, DEDICATION is the sexy, comedy-drama salve for grown-ups we are all craving right now, in the musical zeitgeist we can't get enough of.
