Drop-dead gorgeous, razor-sharp wit, charter member of the school's most popular clique - Margaux (with an "x") is too smart, too beautiful and too haunted to ever really connect with anyone. That is, until she meets Danny, a scrawny, weak-chinned, animal-loving oddball with a quaint chivalrous streak, who is wrestling with some demons of his own. In this love story, which is as different as its protagonists, Margaux and Danny learn that together it's a little easier to carve out a place for themselves in the world.
