Despite acquiring a second bachelor’s degree, her aspirations remain unfulfilled. She yearns for a taste of city lights and a place pulsating with opportunities and life.

In a twist of fate, Finley and Sophie both sign up on a home-swap website and decide to exchange their lives for the duration of their holidays. But will this switch bring them the fulfilment they seek? Or will they discover that what they truly need is still 300 miles away?
