Product Description
Almost sixteen, Iris is five-feet-ten, a straight-A student, and a hotshot athlete who has never broken curfew. So when her mother goes on vacation, how does responsible Iris end up with the car trashed, a disabled hearse in the garage, and a couple of hunky motorcycle guys named Byron and Foster waiting for her phone call? A strong, engaging protagonist propels this fast-moving novel seasoned with laugh-out-loud one-liners. “Full of situations that border on slapstick and peopled by a host of weird characters, the story is a delight because Iris is a delight--funny, ambitious, bright, and tempted to just wrong enough.”--Booklist
Amazon.com Review
"Get a life!" Ironically, both her aunt and her mother keep telling her to live it up a little. No matter how hard she tries, though, Iris can't seem to shed her reputation for being boring, responsible, and too tall to get a date. All that's about to change. While her mother is away on a Caribbean vacation, Iris plays pool with a sexy hoodlum, gets her foot smashed in a brawl, trashes her mother's car, tangles herself up with some unexpected friends, and manages to bring her aunt into the mess. Despite the madcap chaos, Iris keeps her head and cracks hilarious jokes along the way. What a romp!
