About the book

Phillipa Hunter, or Flip, doesn't think she'll ever fit in at the Swiss boarding school. Besides still aching after her mother's death and being homesick for her father and Connecticut, she isn't sophisticated like the other girls, and discussions about boys leave her tongue-tied. Her happiest times are spent apart from the others, sketching or wandering in the mountains. But the day she's out walking alone and meets a French boy, Paul, things change for Flip. As their relationship grows, so does her self-confidence. Despite her newfound happiness, there are times when Paul seems a stranger to her. And since dating is forbidden except to seniors, their romance must remain a secret. With so many new feelings and obstacles to overcome in her present, can Flip help Paul to confront his troubled past and find a future? With the help of Paul and her new art teacher, Madame Perceval, Phillipa begins to heal and assist others as well. (A stand-alone novel.)
