When Emily's father sends her to a boarding school in Los Angeles, the last thing she expects to find is a breathtaking boy with a cute English accent. All Emily wants is to find a magical lamp like Aladdin and have a genie grant her three wishes; to be back with her mom in Cedar Heights, for her mom's cancer to disappear and to figure out why her relationship with her boyfriend, Mason, is circling the drain. But as the school year progresses she realizes life tends to have plans of its own-as more and more circumstances throw Ian and Emily together, she comes to realize that maybe, just maybe, it's okay not to have everything figured out and sometimes you need to have the courage to take a leap of faith and try something new-like Ariel did when getting new legs or Cinderella did when standing up to her stepmother and stepsisters.

A note from the author: This book deals with mature and sensitive topics like attempted rape, physical, emotional, and sexual abuse and has some mild language.
