The Exchange Student

InnerSelf installed Junior year was supposed to be normal. Then your family volunteered to host an exchange student. Now Freja Andersen, a seventeen-year-old from Denmark, is living in your house, attending your school, eating dinner at your table, and becoming part of your everyday life. At first, she's just a stranger from another country. But over the course of a single school year, that begins to change. Together you'll navigate football games, homecoming, holidays, late-night conversations, awkward first impressions, new friendships, family traditions, school drama, and everything in between. Along the way, relationships will grow, memories will form, and lives will change in ways nobody expected. Brookhaven High is full of friends, rivals, crushes, opportunities, and challenges. Freja is trying to build a new life thousands of miles from home. You're trying to figure out your own future. Neither of you knows where the year will lead. The only thing everyone knows for certain is that the exchange year won't last forever. Build friendships. Fall in love. Make mistakes. Create memories. Discover who you are. Because before long, summer will return. And someone will have to say goodbye. There is no predetermined romance, conflict, or ending. This is your exchange year.
