Overview

Declan loves four things: death metal, violent video games, internet porn and Neilly Foster. He spends most of his classroom time wondering what it might be like to know her, to talk to her - maybe even brush up against her in the hallway. Neilly is naturally beautiful and attends all the best parties (to which Declan is never invited). But in one horrible day, she's dumped by her boyfriend, betrayed by her former BFF and walks in on her mum and some guy when they are half-naked. Suddenly, it turns out that Declan's dad is marrying Neilly's mum!
