Body grammar : a novel / by Ohman, Jules,author.;
"To her own dismay, Lou is a natural model: tall, thin, captivatingly androgynous, and with a striking look. Out of nowhere, every agent in the Portland area wants to represent her. But Lou doesn't care for fashion, nor does she wish to be seen. Fresh out of high school, Lou's plan is to spend the summer taking photographs and hoping to catch the attention of Ivy, her close friend and secret crush. But when an afternoon hiking trip ends in a tragic accident, Lou finds herself lost, ridden with guilt, and unsure how to connect with her friends. Determined to find a purpose, Lou steps into the dizzying world of modeling auditions, commercial shoots, shockingly expensive haute couture, and runways in New York, Paris, and Milan. It's a whirlwind of learning how to walk, how to command her body and its movements, and how to manage her newfound fame. But in the dazzling flash of the camera and the thrill of seeing her face giant-size on billboards, Lou begins to worry that she's losing her identity-as a person, as an artist, and as a young woman still in love with the girl she left behind. A sharply observed and intimate story of grief and healing, doubt and self-acceptance set against the intense hyper-image-conscious industry of modeling and high fashion, Body Grammar shines with the anxieties of growing up and the often heartbreaking beauty of pursuing love"--

A Park Avenue penthouse. Glamorous, star-studded parties. Cover shots on every fashion magazine. It's just the life Roxanne Ballinger has worked so hard to attain. But after visiting her hometown of Oak Valley for her brother's wedding, Roxy is experiencing something she never thought possible-a yearning for home. So she leaves Manhattan, buying a beautiful cabin and preparing to live without the irritation of the paparazzi. But that irritation is quickly replaced by Deputy Sheriff Jeb Delaney. Just his name makes the hair on Roxy's neck stand on end. What's even more infuriating is that everyone in town loves him. But Jeb is no innocent-with two failed marriages behind him, Roxy can see that. What she can't see is why he puts her so on edge...and why she can't stop thinking about him.
