None of her boyfriends have been famous. Most have unbearable habits and overbearing mothers. A few only played show tunes. Still, they're intense. Pierced. Tragically stubbled. With a predilection for dressing in black. Eliza finds them deep -- in theory, anyway. But in reality, none comes close to the object of her original rock-star crush: actor/crooner Jack Wagner. When her latest catch turns out be another mama's boy, Eliza begins to realize love is nothing like her favorite '80s song.<CENTER>Is she ready to face the music?</CENTER>Just as Eliza is planning her next move, she's dealt an emotional triple-whammy involving her sister, her best friend, and a horrific blind date. That's when she realizes that only by taking a good look at her past -- and her tape collection -- will she ever be able to hear a different kind of song and live a different kind of life. 767753 1 4 2003 Getting Over Jack Wagner total:202|5:0|4:2|3:1|2:2|1:0| 202 621 278 35 2 0 false false Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 22 04:19:47 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 22 04:35:23 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 1 false false Sat Apr 12 20:59:28 -0700 2008 Sat Apr 12 21:02:17 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Tue Apr 14 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 20 14:46:01 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 20 14:50:03 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false true Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2003 Wed Sep 03 07:51:42 -0700 2008 Wed Sep 03 07:54:10 -0700 2008
