Publisher's Synopsis
It isn't Alice and Patrick anymore; it's simply Alice and, much to her surprise, Alice is finding that's okay. In fact, between working on the school play, and becoming more involved with the newspaper, Alice is so busy that she doesn't have much time to pine for Patrick, or for her best friends Pamela and Elizabeth - and they resent it.
But if Alice ever needed friends, it's now. She's got a secret e-mail admirer she's not sure how to handle, her brother, Lester, is plunging headlong into a risky romance with a professor. And her new friend Faith seems unable to break free of an abusive relationship with her boyfriend. It's not simple being simply Alice.
