About the Book

Sofia Cole has always been able to get anything she wants through begging, flirting, and shameless manipulation of everyone around her. Sofia doesn't think that Dad sending her on a gap service year to Guyana to address how "spoiled" she is will change any of that. Sofia just might be proven wrong. (A companion novel to SOLVING FOR EX (February 2014, ) FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS is a standalone Upper YA/Lower NA contemporary romance. Fuller synopsis below.) ***** Sofia's had a really rough year - busted for cheating at prep school, dumped - dumped! - for the first time ever, and her new non-profit working stepmother is turning out to be an uppity bitch. She deserves to treat herself. But when she throws herself a birthday party with 20 of her closest friends in Paris and (accidentally!) maxes out her dad's credit card in the process, he's had enough of her attitude. As punishment, he switches her planned gap year touring Europe to one doing community service work with the evil stepmother's relief organization in Guyana. The rural village of Dabu needs help in every area from education to getting safe drinking water. But Sofia's more concerned about her roommate Callum, the gardening expert, who calls Sofia "Princess" and scoffs at her distaste for sweaty, muddy, iguana-eating, outhouse-using life in Guyana. Eventually, life on the equator, her work in the village, and especially Callum - with his brooding eyes and bewitching New Zealand accent - start to grow on Sofia. Life is rough in Guyana, but it's roughest on the girls, whose families are too poor to send only the most promising boys in school. They're trapped in a cycle that will keep them from ever making a better life for themselves, or for the village. Worse, Callum doesn't seem to think any of the changes Sofia envisions are actually necessary. Determined to change the girls' futures, she comes up with a strategy to help them and, ultimately, the village. But what starts out as a plan to convince Callum and her father that she's fallen in love with Guyana, turns into the realization that maybe she's falling for Callum, too. And that by changing these girls' lives, she might also be changing her own.
