Wish you were in someone else's shoes?
Leaving wasn't supposed to have been the end . . .
Jo just can't figure out how it happened. One day she's blissfully cohabiting with Dan; the next she's moving out, wondering why Dan isn't chasing after her. Or at least suffering minor emotional trauma and sexual impotence. And was it really necessary for him to shack up with their amorous neighbour quite so quickly?
If only Jo could be someone else for a while - someone who isn't newly single, freshly unemployed due to the bursting Internet bubble, and sharing her apartment with her father after he's decided to take a breather from her mother. Thanks to the wonders of technology and the anonymity of e-mail, she does just that: reinvents herself and strikes up a virtual friendship with Dan.
Of course, she's well aware that pretending to be someone else isn't the healthiest way to stay close to her ex. But who can be bothered with details when life takes a turn for the confusing? Throw in a scheming neighbour, a disapproving mother, a gorgeous Italian waiter and an appreciation for pop music and you will have a comic caper that will keep you on your toes!
