Lilly Martin is not model-material, but Adam Hiller is, and it turns out he likes to wear dresses when nobody's looking, and is in fact not a 'he' at all. When their school announces a fashion designing competition, Lilly decides to kill two (or three) birds with one stone and: 1) Win the fashion competition by making the best dress Edgley High has ever seen. 2) Help Adam (who prefers Eve, thank you very much) come out as the girl she is. 3) Annoy the bigots.

(Book 3 of the Procrastinators Series, set in September 2014 -but can be read independently from the series-) "Relationships end. Relationships end in three ways: you split up, one of you dies, or you get married. There's a two out of three chance that it won't end well. It's not exactly encouraging." - Jamie Gail hates relationships in real life. Relationships in literature and film, that she can deal with, but risking such a real life rejection? No, that's not on her agenda. So when Jamie moves back to London to partake in the audition process to become Elphaba in the theatre production of Wicked thanks to the prompts of Jamie's childhood friend Carrie Fletcher, why is it that Jamie tries to attempt real life shipping to get her new flatmate together with the girl he's been pining over for a year? Not to mention that the girl he's forbidden to love is already in a relationship of her own, or that this flatmate practically hates Jamie. Breaking up other relationships and putting them back together in a different alignment with new people isn't meant to be done, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. And besides, who likes seeing people unhappy?
