First there was Bridget Jones. Then there was Georgia Nicolson. Now get ready to meet Patch Simmons . . .
Patch has decided that this is the year he will get a boyfriend. Fate finally intervenes when two new mysterious boys join drama club: Peter, who's just moved from New York (very chic) and his best friend, Sam.
Patch is confident that one of them will be his first boyfriend. So, armed with his over-supportive best friend Jean and an alarming level of self-confidence, Patch sets out to make his mission a success. Whether or not they actually like boys or him is a problem for later.
"Funny and full of heart, Patch is up there with the great whingers Adrian Mole, Georgia Nicolson, and Bridget Jones. - Monica Heisey, bestselling author of Really Good, Actually
