This is the story of Ella Duran, who has dreamed of studying at Oxford since she was a girl, and she’s finally there on a Rhodes scholarship, studying English language and literature from 1830 to 1914. But Oxford isn’t her only commitment; she still has a career back in America in politics, with a chance to be the education consultant on a junior senator’s presidential campaign, which she plans to do remotely before flying home the moment her Oxford year ends. The plan unravels when she meets her tutor, Jamie Davenport, and falls into a relationship that forces her to weigh the future she’s spent her whole life chasing against the one she didn’t see coming.
