Is one week enough time for sixteen-year-old Jo Vincent to patch things up with her dropout Dad? Jo’s not too sure herself, but wasn’t about to turn down his offer of a four-star ski trip to Colorado not to find out. How much could happen to a future photographer-actress-princess wannabe during a one-week vacation anyway? For starters, she is nearly run down by a shredder on the first day, but is rescued by a Swiss knight on skis – Hans Gottlieb – and then it is “lerve” at first sight!

But that’s not all! Jo has to try to get along with Kate, yet another of her Dad’s girlfriends; to be polite to the snooty Woodses, whom her Dad is wooing because of a potential business deal; and to avoid their creepy son, Justin Woods, who is determined to make trouble. To make things worse they are all staying in the same chalet, and Jo has no other choice than to meet these challenges head-on while trying to patch things up with her Dad and while trying to impress Hans. Does this California surfer-girl have anything in common with a Swiss ski instructor?

Jo Vincent is a remarkable character. She is a teenager who, believe it or not, makes impressive choices and manages to pull it all together despite the crises in her life, and leave us with the reassurance that this is one girl will turn out just fine.
