About the book
Until now, super athletic Jenny loved being the manager of the boys' soccer team. The guys all accept her as one of them, and she's made a lot of good friends. Unfortunately, gorgeous, gray-eyed Rick thinks of her as just a friend, too. Determined to get Rick's attention, Jenny gives herself a make-over -- her hair, her clothes, the works! But Rick doesn't seem to notice her sophisticated new style. Can Jenny find a way to turn Rick's head, or is she doomed to being just one of the boys?
