Description

Meet Biff: weird, wild-haired, recovering pinball addict. He's eighteen but looks more like fourteen, and it drives him crazy. He's never had a girlfriend, can't talk to girls without freezing up, and isn't quite sure about the human race in general. Biff's immediate concern, however, is Tommie, the girl he's had a crush on for the past twenty-three months. Maybe it's about time he got up the nerve to say more to her than "Hi."
Then Biff meets Heidi: beautiful, smart-mouthed, cigarette smoker. She's here visiting her aunt in Seattle because she's been suspended from her high school for who-knows-what reason. Biff has never found himself getting such a kick out of being with someone, even though she often drives him crazy.
This is the romantic, comic story of two quirky, imperfect people who couldn't possibly fit into each other's lives, but do, sort of.
