Anna and the French Kiss meets The Disreputable History of Frankie
Landau-Banks in a romantic and hilarious new novel from Brodi Ashton,
the author of the Everneath trilogy.
Raucous parties, privileged attitudes, underage drinking, and diplomatic
immunity . . . it's all part of student life on Embassy Row.
Piper Baird has always dreamed of becoming a journalist. So when she
scores a scholarship to exclusive Chiswick Academy in Washington, DC,
she knows it's her big opportunity. Chiswick offers the most competitive
prize for teen journalists--the Bennington scholarship--which would
ensure her acceptance to one of the best schools in the country.
Piper isn't at Chiswick for two days before she witnesses the extreme
privilege of the young and wealthy elite who attend her school--and
realizes that access to these untouchable students just might give her
the edge she'll need to blow the lid off life at the school in a
scathing and unforgettable exposé worthy of the Bennington.
The key to the whole story lies with Rafael Amador, the son of the
Spanish Ambassador--and the boy at the center of the most explosive
secrets and scandals on Embassy Row. Rafael is big trouble--and when he
drops into her bedroom window one night, asking for help, it's Piper's
big chance to get the full scoop. Except Piper discovers that despite
his dark streak, Rafael is smart, kind, funny, and gorgeous--and she
might have real feelings for him. How can she break the story of a
lifetime if it will destroy the boy she just might love?
