Lottie's life is no fairy tale. In fact, it's far from it.
Her mother flits between relationships, her father's never home and Lottie's the odd one out at school, the quiet one. But she's loved by her friends and, to Lottie, that's all that counts.
But things change when she's given the notorious 'Pen Pal' assignment in class. Lottie gets the chance to pretend and be the perfect person she's always wanted to be. She's suddenly the beautiful, 'popular' one who everyone loves, in her letters. Her ginger, knotted locks transform to flowing red flames and she's as thin as a twig. Lottie looks forward to writing to the mysterious boy who receives her rants and her life seems good.
Just when all is well and her pen friend seems sunk well into her lies, her mother changes everything. New people, a new country and a new school. The only thing that stays the same is her pen pal. Can he help her to face her fears and start afresh?
Will she be stuck the odd one out forever?

It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need.

Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.
