Publisher's Synopsis
Midwestern teen Emily Woods plunges into the glamorous but grueling world of modeling. But Emily is more than just a small-town beauty with stars in her eyes. She's also a freshman at Columbia University who's not about to let couture and klieg lights get in the way of an Ivy League education. Thus begins Emily's double life: cramming for a final at a swimsuit shoot in the Caribbean; gaining the freshman fifteen at the expense of fitting into designer frocks; seduced by both college guys and the sought-after fashion photographer of the moment. But as Emily pursues her fantasy of Vogue covers and cosmetic campaigns her priorities change, until the seamier side of the fashion industry--drugs, plastic surgery, eating disorders--becomes all too familiar territory, forcing her to make a choice between. model and student.--From publisher description.
