✦ Synopsis

When Erin Cerise steps off her plane in Christchurch, New Zealand, she is focused intently on her mission: do something unique that will erase the mess she made of her life on her 17th birthday. She's already lost her swim team captainship, her boyfriend Ben, and her reputation. Her mother is certain studying abroad will regain Erin's chances of a good future. Once Erin sees her uninspiring host family and city, though, she's not so sure.

Before Christchurch, Erin wasn't always intense and focused. Years ago, a mission sounded like a fun adventure, and the only ivy she cared about was the stuff growing around her grandparents' back porch at their peaceful Upper Peninsula home. When had her priorities gone upside down?

Now Erin balks at NZ's itchy school uniforms, cold houses, and her hosts' utter inability to pronounce her name correctly. Christchurch does boast amazing rock climbing, gorgeous scenery, and at least one guy who could make her forget...
