The Leaving — Ruth Crews

Life couldn't get crazier for Anna Merritt... Leaving college is hard. It's even harder when half your mind and all of your heart is an ocean away. Freshly returned from her semester abroad at Oxford University, Anna Merritt is finding life at her small private college in the States almost unbearable. Between picking up old friendships, starting a new job, dealing with unexpected suitors, and pining for England, how is she supposed to find and prepare for the next step of the crazy journey of life? Thank goodness she has letters from her good friend, Eddie, to keep her company...and a surprise visit from the enigmatic Mr. Truman. A poignant coming-of-age journey with a twist of mystery. Book 2 in the Gatekeeper series. Don't miss Book 1, Gatekeeper.
