Description
And Jenna Chen will only ever be a disappointment.
So when Jenna makes a desperate wish to become her cousin, the last thing she expects is for it to come true—literally. All of a sudden she gets to live the life she’s always dreamed of . . . but being the model student at cutthroat Havenwood Private Academy isn’t quite what she’d imagined. Worse, people seem to be forgetting that someone named Jenna Chen ever existed. But isn’t it worth trading it all away—her artistic talent, her childhood home, even the hope of golden boy Aaron Cai loving her back—to be Jessica Chen?

Media Reviews
“A creative twist on the classic Freaky Friday trope. This is a poignant exploration of what it means to be uniquely “you” and the struggles of wanting what you don’t have. The supporting characters are diverse and uniquely flawed, adding depth to Jenna’s character and propelling the story with its relatability. VERDICT Hand this to students who never feel like what they do is enough, who just want to feel seen, and who long for that moment of fame and feeling perfect. Highly recommended.”
