Moving to a new high school in a new state isn t Alex s idea of a good time...especially a place like Utah. Even if most of the Mormon girls are drop-dead gorgeous. It s senior year, and Alex Campanaro would rather be back in Oregon. With his two-day stubble, wild, curly dark hair, Nike T-shirt, and faded jeans, he doesn t fit in with the boys in starched white shirts and ties and the perfect-as-models LDS girls. But then he literally runs into the prettiest blond, blue-eyed girl he s ever seen, and his heart does a strange flip-flop. Jennalee Young can t stop thinking about the hunky guy she d crashed into near the staircase. Most guys didn t pick up your books even if they knocked them out of your hands. And just who says ciao in Utah? Stop dreaming about that dude, her friend Nicole warns her. He s not LDS. You play with fire. As a direct descendant of Brigham Young, and with her father serving as Stake President, Jennalee has her future already lined up Seminary and then marriage to Bridger, the perfect LDS guy. So what is wrong with her? Why doesn t she want him? Suddenly she longs for all things the food, the shoes, the fashions, Alex.... Like two moths drawn to a flame, Alex and Jennalee are drawn toward each other. But will one, or the other, get burned? Or can love truly conquer all even against your parents wishes?
