In this delightfully charming teen spin on You&;ve Got Mail, the one guy Bailey Rydell can&;t stand is actually the boy of her dreams&;she just doesn&;t know it yet.

Classic movie buff Bailey &;Mink&; Rydell has spent months crushing on a witty film geek she only knows online by &;Alex.&; Two coasts separate the teens until Bailey moves in with her dad, who lives in the same California surfing town as her online crush.

Faced with doubts (what if he&;s a creep in real life&;or worse?), Bailey doesn&;t tell Alex she&;s moved to his hometown. Or that she&;s landed a job at the local tourist-trap museum. Or that she&;s being heckled daily by the irritatingly hot museum security guard, Porter Roth&;a.k.a. her new arch-nemesis. But life is whole lot messier than the movies, especially when Bailey discovers that tricky fine line between hate, love, and whatever-it-is she&;s starting to feel for Porter.

And as the summer months go by, Bailey must choose whether to cling to a dreamy online fantasy in Alex or take a risk on an imperfect reality with Porter. The choice is both simpler and more complicated than she realizes, because Porter Roth is hiding a secret of his own: Porter is Alex&;Approximately.
