"Samantha Madison was an ordinary teenager. Well, maybe not so ordinary, since she wears only black and has a great talent for drawing. She has a popular, beautiful older sister, Lucy, and a genius little sister. She's in love with Lucy's boyfriend, Jack, who is also an artist. Her parents decide to sign her up for art classes, which she really doesn't want to take. One day she skips art classes, one thing leads to another, and she saves the President's life. From that moment, her life is changed forever."

" Samantha is a tenth-grader in Washington, D.C. She is forced by her mother to attend drawing lessons, but she absolutely hates them. When it is time for her second lesson, she skips it and hangs out in the cd store next door to the art studio. As she is preparing to leave, she notices a freaky guy with a gun, who is attempting to assasinate the president. The president walks to the door, the creep raises his gun and... Sam jumps him.
When Samantha becomes a national hero, she meets the president's son, who is very cute but also geeky. He falls in love with her, and her awful older sister encourages her to go out with him, but she loves her sister's boyfriend, not the president's son! "
