Summary of Violet on the Runway Summary of Violet on the Runway Reviews for Violet on the Runway An Excerpt from Violet on the Runway
A wallflower in the spotlight can do one of two things: wilt, or blossom...

Violet Greenfield's life changes forever when a lady in giant Chanel shades tells her she could be IT, the next Kate Moss-but taller, and without the PR problems. That's how Violet winds up with a business card in the front pocket of her jeans on her first day as a senior in high school. Angela Blythe from Tryst Models in New York City wants to put Violet on a plane and whisk her into the world of high-heeled boots and oversized sunglasses. Tall, skinny Violet, who's been P-L-A-I-N practically forever.

And guess what? She's going.

Look out for Violet by Design, coming in March 2008 from Berkley Jam.

“Violet is wonderfully witty and sweetly sensitive. She’s not your typical top model: she’s more like your best friend—only prettier.” —Kirsten Kemp, author of Breakfast at Bloomingdale’s
