Harmel's modern-day fairy tale, her debut novel, takes a look at celebrity worship and women's magazines through the somewhat star struck, somewhat skeptical eyes of self-described "nice girl" Claire Reilly, a 26-year-old entertainment editor at Mod magazine. After Claire catches her freeloading boyfriend, Tom, sleeping with another woman, she goes on an uncharacteristic bender, drowning her sorrows in tequila shots. Publishers Weekly
