When Alexander Raines's overprotective parents finally agree to let the 17-year old go on his prestigious school's annual Junior two-month trip to Germany, he imagines a summer full of laughs, adventures and well-deserved independence next to his beautiful best friend, Madeleine. What he doesn't expect is the frustration and confusion that both Gene -his annoyingly charming and risk-seeking roommate- and Mads -the fun and unpredictable girl whom he's known for all his life- cause day after day. To top it off, he's got to bare with the nonstop dose of jealousy, snob gossip, teenage angst and petty drama that inevitably comes with traveling with rich kids throughout Europe. At the end of the day, Alexander knows that for better or for worse, this will be a life-changing trip; because when it comes to teenage attraction, it's all fun and games till someone gets gets hurt. Or worse.
