The teenagers meet when the actor accidentally emails the girl instead of his friend (he misspells his friend's email) and they talk after she discovers he has a pet pig. She doesn't know he's an actor and he doesn't tell her, and he figures out where she's from based on what she says and he encourages the producers of his next film to shoot the film in her beach town. Some of the book is told through their emails. (view spoiler)[ The boy thinks the girl's best friend is her so he asks her out and they go on a date, where she tells him that he is looking for her friend. He goes to her house and they start seeing each other, but she's nervous about all of the paparazzi because her father is a politician who had an affair with her mother. They break things off because it's too stressful for her and he starts to see his co-star because his agent forces him too, but he comes back to the main girl anyway. They steal a boat and go to the next town where her father is going to be and she wants to meet him, but decides against it because she doesn't want to bring him into her life. The book ends with her and the actor together but does not say whether she ends up going to the writing camp like she wanted or what is going to happen with their relationship when he goes back to California.
