Escape from LA — J.M. Cagle

Upon realizing that her entire world has always been full of nothing but selfishness, hurtful gossip and a longing for expensive yet worthless possessions, Roberta ‘Bobbi' Jefferson decides to turn her life upside down and begin again. Swearing off relationships and choosing to focus, instead, on her career as a writer, she leaves Los Angeles for the fictional town of Loxborough, in Robin Hood's county of Nottinghamshire. With her new friends, April Lafferty and Joey Stiles, Bobbi attempts to adapt to a country lifestyle full of smaller fridges, erratic weather changes, food that takes over an hour to arrive and farm animals galore. During her first Nottingham party, Bobbi finds herself in an altercation with Christopher Barnes, a stubborn and rude man who thinks her Eat, Pray, Love trip is a ridiculous excuse to run away from her problems instead of facing them. Before long, Bobbi finds herself spending more and more time with Chris. She realizes that there is more to him than she had originally thought, including the fact that he's part of the second richest families in the United Kingdom and the owner of one of the biggest law firms in the world. She soon finds herself falling for him, but when her past follows her to England, will she still choose a life with him before it's too late?
