Libby's father is a drunk, her mum wouldn't know the meaning of home cooking if it landed in her lap and her brother's in trouble with the police - but none of this matters, as Zack is interested in HER, not her home-life. But just as things are working out on the boy front, Libby's family lose their home, and have to move in with their gran. Libby has to start a new school, give up her plans for Zack, and leave her best friend Nadine behind. But slowly she discovers there really IS a silver lining to every grey cloud - and there's plenty to fall in love with in her new home: her gran's cooking, the school outsider who stands up to the bullies, and the deadbeat boy who wants to show her the beauty of the desert...

It's not the way most actors get their first break, but for an unconventional guy like Henry Alford, it made sense to beg dozens of Times Square deli owners to hang his unknown head shot on their walls of fame. Big Kiss chronicles the irritation and exhilaration of trying to make it in the entertainment world as Alford enrolls in the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in England (where he fails to convince the Queen to attend his final performance); auditions for the role of Wilbur the Pig in Charlotte's Web; botches an Amish hoedown dance number in tryouts for a biblical epic; and fails to make the cut in a nude Measure for Measure in the East Village. But there is triumph -- a fortuitous move to Los Angeles (his boyfriend was offered a job there), a gig cohosting VH-1's Rock of Ages, and the role of Screaming Victim #211 in Godzilla. A rollicking romp through a stranger-than-fiction world, Big Kiss perfectly captures the experience of being a struggling performer and delivers first-rate, totally original entertainment on every page.
