Another high school book. Yay!
Ever since she was eight, Josie Reyes' life has been absolute shit. She's had to grow up and act like her parents as soon as she turned fifteen. The only people she truly cares about is her dying grandfather, her little brother and her closest friends.
As a dare created during a small get-together, Josie applies for one of the most prestigious universities in the world: Oxford. She never expected to be considered, but Oxford never expected an entrance essay like hers.
A story about a teenage girl whose soul has been hardened by time and disappointment, but fights to keep her loved ones and her sanity, and explores tempting opportunities rarely presented to her.
