Beckoned, Part 1: From London with Love

FIRE AND ICE. What happens when you meet the right person, at the wrong time?
Danish real estate scion, Soren Lund, has never been a risk-taker. MBA school was simply the next step. When he gets into the best business school in Europe, he goes, despite the fact that it's in passionate, unpredictable Barcelona. All is going according to plan - until a fiery Californian shoots into his life, knocking him off course.
Spitfire Angela Holguín lives her life amassing stories for her future rocking chair days. A second-year MBA student, she's spending a semester in exciting Barcelona on exchange. Her goal: adventures, memories, and a grand romance. She sets her sights on the brooding Dane, but Soren misses his chance when a dashing Scot swoops in.
A year later, the Scot invites Angela to visit him in London where he's doing his summer internship. The cosmic twist is that Soren is there too, and this time, he'll do anything to win her over.

SPECIAL NOTE FOR PART 1:
Welcome to BECKONED, a series that readers have called
"...the best series I've read in my entire life!"
"...realistic, surprising, and emotional."
"...so well-written, you feel you are in the story with the characters."
The BECKONED series covers five years, and--just like real life--it takes time to develop. It is truly a single story in six parts and at first the pace might be slower than you are used to as we introduce you to the worlds of Angela and Soren; two graduate school students around thirty, who are just beginning to figure out the paths they want to take in their lives both personally and professionally. Also like real life, good choices are made, bad choices are made, and sacrifices happen, but if you stick with it, I promise that you will be rewarded with an incandescent ending that will leave you surprised and breathless.
>>>literary fiction<<<<, then this is the series for you. The series has over 300 reviews with an average rating of 4.4+, so take a chance and dip your toe into the world of BECKONED!
Please note:
Part 1 ends with a Happy for Now
Part 2 ends with a Cliffhanger
Part 3 ends with a Happy for Now
Part 4 ends with a Happily Ever After (or is it?)
Part 5 ends with a Happy for Now
Part 6 ends with an incandescent Happily Ever After

Aviva Vaughn writes slow burn women's fiction inspired by food, travel, and Jane Austen. She loves books and has been a voracious reader her whole life finishing Louisa May Alcott's Little Women when she was five.
She likes to laugh, eat and be intellectually stimulated, preferably at the same time; and enjoys reading and writing about strong, modern characters, no matter what era or planet they are in/on.
She isn't afraid to try new things, which has made for an interesting-although not always straight forward-life. Her favorite "two truths and a lie" line is: I have ridden bareback in the Navajo nation, I have jumped out of an airplane over New Zealand, and I have gone spelunking in Costa Rica. Answer will appear at the end of BECKONED, Part 4: From Barcelona with Love ;^)
She lives in Southern California.
