Good Times, Bad Boys

Love in the time of Top 40 . . .

Echo Brennan's life is stuck on pause, instead of chasing her dream job at Disc, music's hottest magazine, she's still writing for a small-time paper. And helping her boyfriend, Matt, who's had a record deal for years, get through his writer's block. Knowing she needs a life makeover, she kicks Matt out and vows to live her life to a new beat -- one that includes professional success and a sensible boyfriend.

Then, overnight, Matt jumps from wannabe rock star to the nation's Next Big Thing. All thanks to his hit single . . . about his horrible ex.

The most hated woman in rock since Yoko, Echo can't get a job or a date. Was she really as unsupportive as the song suggests? If she's going to have any career -- any life -- at all, she's going to have to rebuild her rep, one lyric at a time . . .
