I did meet a Boy,' Midge snaps. 'He has wavy brown hair, and he's English. I met him at the Library. We had romantic picnics by the river and we kissed. A lot.'
Midge has never had a boyfriend - so she makes one up. Then she is paired for the Major Project with George, the New Boy, who doodles dragons, tucks in his shirt, has a mysterious past and an unseemly interest in secrets.
Soon Midge's white lie turns into a web of deceit as she fabricates emails from her imaginary boyfriend, and even a MySpace page. Then one day, Midge comes face-to-face with her imaginary boyfriend in the school corridor. Tall, brown wavy hair, English accent - he's exactly as she d described him - right down to his name.
Ben catches on quickly and rescues her from certain humiliation - kissing her in front of all her friends. He seems the answer to her prayers. A dream come true. The Perfect Boyfriend! But he turns out to be not quite perfect after all, and before long Midge finds herself in all sorts of trouble.

This book is about a 16 year old girl named Midge, who doesn't want to admit she has never had a boyfriend. Midge then invents her own imaginary 'english' boyfriend who she makes out to be perfect; she even makes a myspace for him. Then she is paired for some major project with George, the New Boy, who draws dragons, tucks in his shirt in and has a mysterious past. Then suddenly a boy with the same characteristics and name comes to Midges school, exactly as Midge described her imaginary boyfriend. Midges life then gets more complicated and out of hand.
