Maria begins her small blog, 'The English Rose In The Big Apple', writing about getting to grips with New York life.
Just as she's settling down Maria finds a message on her blog from Logan, an old school friend.
The message was simple: it said 'hello'.
Could this lead to a life of excitement for Maria? Or an awkward school reunion?
