Why we love ''Summerland'''s Lori Loughlin  WHAT SHE'S DOING
Loughlin plays Ava, a beach-bunny fashion designer forced to
take in her sister's three children after their parents are
killed in a car accident. Despite the grim premise, the show
manages to pack almost as much teen and adult romance into one
hour as ''The O.C.''  WHY SHE'S HOT RIGHT NOW Playing John
Stamos' adorable love interest on ''Full House,'' Loughlin
showed she could surmount that show's sticky cuteness. She's now
dealing with edgier issues, all the while wearing a stunning
array of bikinis.  BREAKOUT MOMENT Thankfully, it's not all
auntie business. In recent episodes, Ava has set off sparks with
her sexy ex Johnny (Shawn Christian). And did we mention she
wears a lot of bikinis?  Originally posted Aug 04, 2004
