Grief brought high school senior Finley Sinclair to Ireland. Love will lead her home.
Eighteen-year-old Finley Sinclair is witty, tough, talented, and driven. With an upcoming interview at the Manhattan music conservatory, she just needs to finish composing her audition piece. But her creativity disappeared with the death of her older brother, Will.
She decides to take a break and study abroad, following Will’s travel journal to Ireland. Her brother felt closest to God there, and she hopes to find peace about his death. Meanwhile, Beckett Rush—teen heartthrob and Hollywood bad boy—is flying to Ireland to finish filming his latest vampire movie. On the flight, he bumps into Finley—the one girl who seems immune to his charm. Undeterred, Beckett convinces Finley to strike an unconventional bargain.
As Finley deals with the loss of her brother, the pressures of school, and her impending audition, she wonders if an unlikely romance is blossoming between her and Beckett. Then she experiences something that radically changes her perspective on life. Has everything she’s been looking for been with her all along?

"I thought this book was totally precious! The whole time, all I could think was "awwwwwwwwwww". Maybe that's not your thing, but it made me kind of happy. This book is also solidly based in Christianity and goes through the main character's struggle with finding God. Sometimes that can come off as preachy and annoying, but I liked how it was put into this book. I'm also religious, so I don't find that kind of thing offensive. If you are offended by God, then I wouldn't suggest this book. Overall, I felt the book was a little read even though it dealt with some serious issues. Beckett was a sweet guy and totally fills the necessary squares in swoon worthy guy. My only problems with this book were that Beckett saw Finley as just a normal girl, when she's actually a wealthy heiress. There seemed to be conflicting images because it talked about how she was in national news, but she acts like just a small town Southern girl. I mean, it wasn't a huge deal, but I didn't feel like Finley reflected her background that much. She kept feeling inferior to actresses and models, when she herself would probably have run with the Paris Hiltons of the world. My other big huge GIGANTIC issue is actually really stupid. At the beginning of the book, Finley and Beckett meet because I nice flight attendant offers Finley a seat in first class next to Beckett. Umm... no! I was raised in an airline family and from what I know, it's against most companies' policies to upgrade a person to first class when they haven't paid an upgrade fee. Plus, why would the flight attendant pick HER! I'm sure there were other teenage girls on the plane. It would have been more realistic (or at least as realistic as meeting a famous movie star on an airplane can be) is Finley had just been sitting next to Beckett because that was the seat she paid for. I mean, she's an heiress for goodness sake! You'd think her parents would at least spring for a first class seat rather than sitting their only daughter in coach! I know. Stupid. I'll get over it eventually. Other than that, I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a sweet, light read with enough substance that you don't feel your brain bleeding out your ear."
