The Alien Within (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780994646521)

Orion has a secret that only Zoe knows. If only she could remember. But he won't tell her because, well...who wants to be with a 4000 year old alien? Even if he does look seventeen. When his totally unsuitable guardian, Archimedes, forces him to return to East Valley High, he can't help but hope the bond between them is still there. Maybe she will learn to like the human he is struggling to become. Yet nothing goes the way he hopes, especially when Harry Crosby turns up and is turning heads. Maybe even Zoe's? And then there's Jas, who makes it clear she still likes Rion and will stop at nothing to convince him they belong together. As if. Rion's heart belongs to the one person who still doesn't realise their connection. High school, relationships, and dealing with his embarrassing 'Uncle' Archimedes. Who knew that being human could be so hard?
