title: The Key to Everything
author: Stokes, Paula
description: College senior Oakland Fuller has always believed in signs and soulmates, so when both a therapist and a fortuneteller say that her repeated relationship failures are due to unresolved feelings for her high school boyfriend, Seth, Oakland tries desperately to get back in touch with him. Problem: Seth isn't responding to her online messages. To rescue Oakland from a pathetic Christmas break of sitting in front of the computer, her best friend Morgan books the two of them on a guided excursion of Thailand. When the girls meet a pair of American soldiers in Bangkok, Oakland takes Morgan's advice and engages in a little harmless holiday hooking up. Sergeant Tyson Banks is the perfect mix of sexy and fun. Two weeks with him might just turn out to be the best relationship Oakland has ever had. Until the day she spots someone familiar across a crowded temple complex--it's Seth! Somehow the boy she's been trying to reconnect with is in Bangkok too. If that's not a sign, then what is? Filed with friendship, romance, and gorgeous faraway settings,The Key to Everything is a book for anyone who's ever dreamed of finding love when (or where) they least expected it.
