Book Description

Just One of the Gang...

At fifteen, Andrea was tired of being everyone's buddy and no one's girl. Why couldn't she be like pretty, petite Lisa, always surrounded by a crowd of adoring boys? With all the guys Lisa had to choose from, why did she have to go out with Craig? Andy was crazy about Craig, but no matter how hard she tried he always seemed to see her as just "one of the crowd". Of course, she couldn't really blame him. Why would he want to go out with a tall, scrawny loser like her when he could date a knockout like Lisa?

It wasn't until Andrea stopped trying to be someone she wasn't and learned to like the person she was that she finally hit upon the winning strategy for getting what she wanted in life and love...
