Jenna Boller is back from her life-altering trip to Texas, dripping with instant maturity. She's got a new job as assistant to Madeline Gladstone, Director of Quality Control for Gladstone Shoes, and a handsome protÔegÔe named Tanner Cobb. But balancing all these responsibilities with the angst of junior year and her needy family isn't easy, especially when she's uncovering nefarious dealings at a mysterious shoe factory called Plant 453 and her protÔegÔe happens to be a shoplifter. Jenna finds it difficult to trust Tanner, although his street smarts might be just what she needs when the going gets tough--filling so many shoes is a tall order! But Jenna's sense of humor keeps her grounded and helps her understand maturity is a work-in-progress.
