Young Adult Romance
Popular party girl and high school senior Jessica Scott has
a secret: she used to be a nerd — a big one; a goody
two-shoes, grade-skipping, all-state spelling bee champ. But
she lost the braces, put on some contacts, and applied all
her academic genius to studying and imitating the social
elite. Now she rules the school from the upper echelon of
the high school realm. With her cool new friends and
hottest-guy-in-school boyfriend, life’s a beach — and that’s
where she’s headed for Spring Break. That is, until her
teacher breaks the bad news that she’s failing Biology — and
her only chance to make up the grade is to throw away the
culminating trip of her hard-earned popularity and join the
Conservation Club in Panama to save the Golden Frog. Unable to let go of her faded college dreams, Jess finds
herself in a foreign country with a new social crew, and one
handsome face that stands out as a blast from the past,
threatening to ruin her queen bee reputation. Travis Henley
may have grown up, but he still likes to play childish games
and as payment for retrieving Jess’ lost ring from the
bottom of a jungle pool, he wants three dates. While Jess
does battle with spiders, snakes, wildfires and smart mean
girls, she desperately tries to hang on to the last vestiges
of her popular existence like the Golden Frog from its
webbed toe. But as she starts to care about something more
than tanning and texting – a species on the verge of
disappearing forever – she may realize the worth of her
inner nerd, and the one frog in particular that could be her
prince in disguise. Set in the lush and tropical El Valle de Anton, this modern
fairy tale re-imagining of “The Frog Prince” is toe-curling
contemporary romance with an environmentalist heartbeat, in
the tradition of Stephanie Perkins.
