Advice From a Caterpillar

“Girl meets boy. Boy meets boy. Girl meets boy's boy.... whatever.”

Synopsis

When it comes to romance, Missy's attitude has always been whatever. After all, her artistic career is flourishing, her spacious New York City loft is fabulous and her relationship with a married man is totally uncomplicated. But then Missy meets Brat, who's sweet, genuine and shares her fondness for 70's sitcoms. Unfortunately, he's also dating her pal Spaz. When Missy and Brat unexpectedly fall for each other, will she lose her identity... and her best friend?
