A major film is already in development with Temple Hill Entertainment. Set against the stunning backdrop of Oxford, this sparkling debut novel tells the unforgettable story of a determined young woman eager to find her place in the world, and the handsome man who introduces her to an incredible love that will irrevocably change her future – perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes and Nicholas Sparks. American Ella Durran has had the same plan for her life since she was thirteen: to study in Oxford. At 24, she finally makes it to England with a Rhodes scholarship when she is offered an incredible position in the presidential campaign of an up-and-coming political star. With the promise that she can work remotely and return to Washington, D.C. at the end of her year in Oxford, she is free to enjoy her once-in-a-lifetime experience. That is, until a quick-witted local, who is too fast with his tongue and his car, ruins her shirt.
