Omschrijving
She left Idaho chasing a dream. What she found was unexpected love.
Jennifer believed Hollywood would be her big break. Instead, she's waiting tables in a crumbling LA diner, wondering how she ended up serving toast to hungover B-listers. Enter Gareth: quiet, clever, and unmistakably Welsh. A connection sparks--improbable, but oddly irresistible.
From California and the Carolinas to a chilly London flat, their story unfolds. But when Gareth's tangled past finally surfaces--his job, his marriage, his version of the truth--Jennifer finds herself penniless, heartbroken, and stranded in a country where she doesn't even understand the sarcasm.
Now a regular at the Dream Café and slowly rebuilding a life of her own, Jennifer is no longer simply that woman who left Idaho. But when Gareth resurfaces--full of apologies and good intentions--she has to decide: can you forgive the person who helped you believe in yourself again... but then let you down?
The American Woman is the third standalone in the At the Dream Café series--witty, emotionally layered fiction for readers who love second chances, romantic misfires, and finding your footing far from home.
