A Brave Start (Across the Pond #1)

"A story of how a 5,000 mile, cross Atlantic trip taught a woman about fate, love, and self discovery.”

When life hands you lemons, you’re supposed to make lemonade, right? What do you do when you don’t like lemonade? For Eleanor Gordon, nothing seemed to work out as expected.

Instead of lemonade, she opts for a lovely tea, just not in her hometown of Phoenix, Arizona but with a big leap across the pond to London, England.

What happens next seems to be a lovely dream when she finds herself accepted to a prestigious writing program and living in a posh Central London flat. Eleanor encounters new friends and new places around London, meets a handsome and wealthy friend of her cousin and literally bumps into her movie star crush. Is London a dream come true? Or the start of another round of happy times leading to sad endings?

Her journey doesn’t just come with London sightseeing, she’s on the road to understanding not only who to love, but how to finally put to rest trauma from the past and learn to trust herself again.
