About this listen
Soon to be a Netflix Film Starring Sofia Carson and Corey Mylchreest!
Award-winning and fan-favorite voice actor Julia Whelan narrates her own novel, a sparkling debut set amidst the breathtaking beauty of Oxford, tells the unforgettable story about a determined young woman eager to make her mark in the world and the handsome man who introduces her to an incredible love that will irrevocably alter 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: Study at Oxford. At 24, she’s finally made it to England on a Rhodes Scholarship when she’s offered an unbelievable position in a rising political star’s presidential campaign. With the promise that she’ll work remotely and return to DC at the end of her Oxford year, she’s free to enjoy her Once in a Lifetime Experience. That is, until a smart-mouthed local who is too quick with his tongue and his car ruins her shirt and her first day.
When Ella discovers that her English literature course will be taught by none other than that same local, Jamie Davenport, she thinks for the first time that Oxford might not be all she’s envisioned. But a late-night drink reveals a connection she wasn’t anticipating finding and what begins as a casual fling soon develops into something much more when Ella learns Jamie has a life-changing secret.
Immediately, Ella is faced with a seemingly impossible decision: turn her back on the man she’s falling in love with to follow her political dreams or be there for him during a trial neither are truly prepared for. As the end of her year in Oxford rapidly approaches, Ella must decide if the dreams she’s always wanted are the same ones she’s now yearning for.

Julia Whelan does a great job narrating, with her blend of character voices, accents, and emotion in her voice.
Note, this is an earlier recording by her, it is not at the same quality of her latest work, that puts her in GOAT territory.
However, the book is not perfect; the start is not so great, I did not like the direction it was taking, or some of the characters and their decisions. I thought some of the side stories were relatively unneeded. Also, some interactions between characters were unnatural, with forced drama to make the book more interesting.
I recommend this book, and I implore readers to continue reading, even if they don't enjoy the start.
Great book
