Beatrice Yousef is different. Maybe different isn't the right word. Quirky. Yeah, she's quirky. With her part-time jobs and hobbies, like her loved of dolphins and her cat Mr. Barnabus Nibblesworth, she barely has time to think of the male species. Ed Flynn is a stick in the mud. Or maybe he's just got a stick up his a**. Either way, the guy wouldn't know fun if it slapped him on the face because he's too busy being the responsible one, a big brother and his father's right-hand man. The thought of adding a woman to his plate, well, that's not in the cards for Ed. At first, all Ed can see in Bea is a clumsy, awkward girl whose uniform is ill-fitting and whose hair is a rat's nest. But, when she ends up in his arms, he feels something. And no, it's not the glass of red wine she just spilled on his shirt. It's something way better. It's too bad Ed can't seem to picture himself ever being happy let alone getting his own happily ever after.
