About this eBook
A girl with it all planned out discovers a romance she never expected in this funny debut about a class trip to London that HelloGiggles.com says you’ll love “if you’re into swoony romances with a little bit of history thrown in.”
This spring break, Julia's rules are about to get defenestrated (SAT word: to be thrown from a window) when she's partnered with her personal nemesis, class-clown Jason, on a school trip to London. After one wild party, Julia starts receiving romantic texts . . . from an unknown number! Jason promises to help discover the identity of her mysterious new suitor if she agrees to break a few rules along the way. And thus begins a wild goose chase through London, leading Julia closer and closer to the biggest surprise of all: true love. Because sometimes the things you least expect are the most meant to be.

I could barely put my phone down. Page after page you're pulled into the story and can't help but empathize with the crazy emotions Julia is going through, which makes it even harder to put down. The deep connection you make with Julia and Jason is all thanks to Lauren Morrill's magnificent and compelling story-telling. The character are complex and real. This book will make you cry, laugh, swoon, angry, and go through all of the roller-coaster of emotions Julia does. Just incredible! A must read!!!

I was not expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did. The characters were great.. They were all unique and realistic. I plan on reading this book multiple times.. I just could not stop reading once I started!
