Publisher's Synopsis
She's a supermodel who is graceful and confident in front of a camera but when she's with a man she likes her confidence slips and she becomes a klutz as she imagines herself as that tall, skinny, sixteen-year-old with braces and zits that boys used mock. That's what she sees when she gazes in a mirror and that distorted image repeatedly defeats her-she trips, stumbles, spills things, and causes mishaps that cancel any romantic chance she might have with the current object of her affection.
He owns a metaphysical bookstore and suffers from a virility insecurity syndrome. This malady causes him to think of himself as a loser when he's with a girl he likes-he slouches, hangs his head, averts his eyes, and mumbles because he's certain he's going to foul up with the potential girl of his dreams.
He and she are friends but would like to be more than that, but neither wants to risk potential failure and the loss of their friendship. They are joined by a collection of offbeat characters that help endow the story with a hefty dose of humor.
