Si seulement Jess pouvait être aussi sublime que sa meilleure amie Flora, la vie serait moins catastrophique. Mais surtout, Ben Jones, le garçon le plus craquant de la terre, la remarquerait enfin... Pour le conquérir, Jess déploie des trésors d'imagination : ce dont elle ne manque pas ! Quitte à se retrouver parfois dans des situations impossibles...
Just when things were going so well. Jess had the perfect summer planned: She and Fred, lounging in the park, gazing into one another's eyes and engaging in witty repartee. It was going to be so romantic. And then her maddening mum stepped in: She suddenly announced a two-week "road trip" to Cornwall to visit Jess's dad, something Jess might have enjoyed, actually, were it not for the monstrously bad timing. Not only will this force Jess and Fred apart for two whole weeks, it will also leave the darling and handsome Fred in the clutches of Jess's blindingly beautiful best friend, Flora--who, you might recall, expressed an interest in Fred not too long ago. As if all this weren't enough, Jess's mum seems to expect her to weep at the grave of every departed literary hero in Britain's long history. "It's absolute torture." And little does Jess know, a huge surprise awaits her when she visits her dad at his home for the first time in years. "From the Hardcover edition."
A wildly funny addition to the hugely popular and bestselling Jess Jordan series
The teenage world of Jess Jordon is looking characteristically chaotic: Mum has joined an online dating programme and has recruited Jess as advisor, while Jess's best friend Flora has a rich new boyfriend who Jess can't possibly keep up with. Then Jess's own boyfriend, Fred, does something unbelievably treacherous and spineless. Jess is becoming completely fed up with the male sex, and is beginning to think that the only reliable form of male is e-mail ... Never mind, there's Valentine's Day to look forward to. Fred is sure to make amends then. Isn't he?
Jess erwartet aufregende Zeiten mit ihrem Austauschpartner Edouard, der auf seinem Foto wie ein Latin Lover aussieht. Sie hofft auf romantische zwei Wochen, trotz der exzentrischen Mutter und ihrer mangelnden Französischkenntnisse. Doch beim Flirten sind Worte vielleicht nicht nötig.
