HYPOTHESIS: taking an actual class in archeology will serve to confirm nicola lancaster in her lifelong dream of becoming an archeologist.
REALITY: an entirely different story
Nicola Lancaster is spending the summer at Siegel Institute Summer Program for Gifted Youth--a hothouse of smart, articulate, intense teenagers living like college students for eight weeks. Nic's had theatre friends and orchestra friends, but never just friend friends. And she's certainly never had a relationship. But on the very first day, she falls in with Katrina the Manic Computer Chick, Isaac the Nice-Guy-Despite-Himself, Kevin the Inarticulate Composer . . . and Battle. Battle Hall Davies is a beautiful blonde dancer from North Carolina. She's everything Nic isn't. Soon the two are friends--and then, startlingly, more than friends. What do you do when you think you're attracted to guys, and then you meet a girl who steals your heart?
