Sutter Keely es un chico en su ultimo ano de preparatoria a quien todo el mundo conoce y aprecia. Es carismatico, agradable, popular, sabe divertirse y es el alma de las fiestas. Aparentemente tiene una vida perfecta. El vive el momento y sus excesos, bebe demasiado whisky a todas horas. Un dia termina varado en el jardin de la casa de su companera de escuela: Aimee, una chica timida e inteligente. Al ver la vida aburrida de Aimee se propone cambiarla y ayudarla a que los demas dejen de aprovecharse de su buena voluntad, y sin darse cuenta se enamora de ella. Pero Aimee no es como las otras chicas, pues lo escucha y confia plenamente en el. El problema es que Sutter no cree que alguien pueda amarlo. Las cosas no salen como el planea y su mundo parece colapsarse sepultandolo en sus emociones, asi que debe decidir que es lo mejor para Aimee.

English description

SUTTER KEELY. HE'S the guy you want at your party. He'll get everyone dancing. He'll get everyone in your parents' pool. Okay, so he's not exactly a shining academic star. He has no plans for college and will probably end up folding men's shirts for a living. But there are plenty of ladies in town, and with the help of Dean Martin and Seagram's V.O., life's pretty fabuloso, actually.Until the morning he wakes up on a random front lawn, and he meets Aimee. Aimee's clueless. Aimee is a social disaster. Aimee needs help, and it's up to the Sutterman to show Aimee a splendiferous time and then let her go forth and prosper. But Aimee's not like other girls, and before long he's in way over his head. For the first time in his life, he has the power to make a difference in someone else's life--or ruin it forever.
