An American girl embarks on a competitive scavenger hunt in England—and along the way, meets up with a bookish British boy who can't help her with the clues . . . but might make the trip take some unexpected turns.
Britt Hanson has always preferred scoring goals on the soccer field to analyzing dusty old books. But when an injury ends her dream to play in college, she jumps at the chance to compete in a scavenger hunt in England that takes her to the locations of classic novels—the prize money would change her life!
There she meets bookish and very British Luke Jackson. He can’t actually help her with any of the clues (against the rules), but something about Luke compels her to invite him to join her. She wouldn’t mind getting to know him—and listening to his accent.
To win, Britt must outwit three smart competitors who aren’t afraid to play dirty while solving clues and traveling around the English countryside. Along the way, Britt learns that sometimes you have to follow the map and other times, you need to throw caution to the wind and see where the cobblestoned road takes you.

 

I’ve been focusing on a lot of upcoming YA books recently. And, honestly, that’s a little weird since I seem to have been taking a detour on my extreme love of YA. However, this one promises all the things I love about fiction: Romance, travelling to Europe, and classic novels as the focal point. So it’s without any hesitation that I say–I can’t WAIT for this one! YA or not, I believe it will be one very enjoyable novel.
