In a nutshell, ALIENATED is the story of
valedictorian Cara Sweeney, who gets more than she bargained for when she
agrees to host the nation’s first intergalactic exchange student, the gorgeous
but emotionally-stilted Aelyx (pronounced A-licks) from planet L’eihr. The tone
is light and humorous, but I explore some deeper themes as well.
