Description
by Peggy Guthart Strauss (Author)
A summer study program in Rome turns into an unexpected adventure for a teen discovering how traveling abroad can lead to transformative self-discovery.
Getting to Italy wasn't easy . . . will staying be even harder? Studying abroad isn't at all like Kelly thought it would be. Instead of shopping for fine Italian leather and living in an elegant apartment with a view of the Colosseum, she is stuck in a stuffy dorm room with three other girls, and is sharing one shower with the entire floor! This is not the bella Roma that she'd dreamed of. But there is one part of Italy that Kelly doesn't mind--Joe, a really cute guy who's in the study-abroad program too. Joe's into staying up late and partying hard, two things that Kelly used to love doing. Bad habits are hard to break, and she soon finds herself on thin ice with the program coordinators. If Kelly's not careful, she just might get the boot . . .Author Biography
