A heat wave in Manhattan is enough to drive a girl crazy,
and for Tracey Spadolini, a 24-year old New York
transplant who's been "left behind" for the summer,
there's even more to sweat about. Her Slightly Significant
Other, Will, will be returning from summer stock in
September, to pick up where they left off. (Or will he?)
But, in the days after Will's departure, Tracey decides
it's time for a reality check. Her un-air-conditioned East
Village apartment is a dump, her entry-level ad job sucks,
her thighs don't seem to be getting any thinner, and Will
seems to have dropped off the face of the earth. So,
Tracey, with the help of her friends and one very
attentive guy, decides to spend her summer reinventing
herself . . . and taking a chance on liking the new woman
she becomes.
