Eric Underwood is what some people would call a loser and a westie, but he's doing the best he can. He didn't get the looks, he doesn't get the luck, and even when he does get the girl, it never seems to last for long. So far he's abandoned Veronica to the sharks (two-legged and otherwise), been told he'll be travelling to England with his grandma, been caught snogging his pillow, been banished to the shed-and that's only the beginning! Eric's story will make you feel good about yourself!
