I See London

by Chanel Cleeton

Maggie Carpenter is ready for a change–and to leave her ordinary life in South Carolina behind. But when she accepts a scholarship to the International School in London, a university attended by the privileged offspring of diplomats and world leaders, Maggie might get more than she bargained for.

When Maggie meets Hugh, a twentysomething British guy, she finds herself living the life she has always wanted. Suddenly she's riding around the city in a Ferrari, wearing borrowed designer clothes and going to the hottest clubs. The only problem? Another guy, the one she can't seem to keep her hands off of.

Half French, half Lebanese and ridiculously wealthy, Samir Khouri has made it clear he doesn't do relationships. He's the opposite of everything Maggie thought she wanted…and he's everything she can't resist. Torn between her dream guy and the boy haunting her dreams, Maggie has to fight for her own happy ending. In a city like London, you never know where you stand, and everything can change in the blink of an eye.

This is a New Adult romance recommended for readers 17 and up.

"I See London is fun, sexy, and kept me completely absorbed." –Katie McGarry, author of Crash Into You

Maggie uproots her whole life when she is rejected by Harvard. She enrolls in a college, overseas, in an attempt to forget all the disappointments in her life. At the International School in London, she discovers a whole new side of herself. She is growing, changing and taking chances. Sometimes, Maggie makes bad choices. Sometimes Maggie makes decisions that will infuriate you, but this is all part of the process. Along the way, she makes some great friends and shares some amazing experiences with them. It was a fun read. I liked having a front row seat for lifestyles of the rich and famous, and enjoyed getting to know Samir, Maggie, Michael, Mya and Fleur. But the ending!!! Be aware, it's a cliffhanger.
