Flight Risk

"I've never felt this intense feeling of belonging before. A nostalgic hammering on my heart that ricochets through my entire body; screaming that this place, one I've never been before, is home."

Jessica Jackson: the newest member of Redwood University's foreign exchange program. Alone in an unfamiliar country, surrounded by people she's never met, doing things she never imagined she would, and she's loving every moment of it. She's struggling with the idea that this incredible life she's built for herself in a simple, short year is all temporary as her heart yearns for her to stay, but circumstances back home keep her anchored to her past life.

Alex Thompson: Redwood's very own sweetheart. Despite his golden-boy reputation and his heart of gold, he has never been in love. Up until this year, he has never wanted to be. After all, the only real experience he's had with love, albeit observing it from the sidelines, ended in nothing but unbearable pain.

Throw in a series of love letters that never get sent, late-night conversations, stolen hearts, an epic spark, and pasts that are rapidly dragging down their chances of a future; Jessica knew her life was just about to get ten times more complicated.
