A high-born British boarding-school girl is exiled to America—and meets a hunky punk rocker who turns her world upside down . . .

When wealthy Rain Mackenzie is expelled from her elite British boarding school, she's forced to join her parents in Massachusetts and attend a lowly public high school as punishment. Determined to escape, Rain makes it her mission to hate everything—and everybody—about Northbrooke High. But that mission becomes impossible when she meets sexy punk rocker Jesse Devlin. Jesse has spikey hair, a pierced eyebrow, and an awesome rock band. Unfortunately, he also has a girlfriend.

As the most popular guy in school, it's only natural that Jesse dates the most popular girl. But something just feels right about Rain. And besides, she has an accent like James Bond's, only sexier. In this story of transatlantic teen romance, "Courtenay crafts a spectacular, fun-filled book" (RT Book Reviews).
