Going to to a bit of reading and catching up with others taking part in the challenge then off to finish up, Illegally Blonde by Nelsa  Roberto (MC is funny, strong, utterly likeable- inspite of being dragged away from from life in Canada and her final year of school there. Fans of Sarah Dessen would really enjoy this one, imo.)
