About the Book
Evie is heartbroken and betrayed when a video of her confronting her cheating ex boyfriend goes viral, so what's a girl to do? Flee to London for the summer, of course! Evie loves everything about London -- the double decker buses, afternoon tea, history around every corner. Everything that is but having to stay with the person who's hurt her most of all -- her father. Desperate for a distraction from their contentious relationship, Evie spends her days wandering the historic streets ... where as though fate is intervening, she keeps meeting a charming and beautiful British busker named Aiden. Evie doesn't want to open herself up again, but Aiden is funny, kind, and he never treats Evie like she's too much. He may just be worth taking a chance on... if Evie can keep her past from getting in the way of her future. Internationally bestselling author Elizabeth Eulberg pens an unforgettable journey that's heartwarming, hilarious, and heavy on both romance and jetlag.Book Synopsis

Praise for Take a Chance on Me:
* "This romance will make readers want to travel to England, listen to British rock songs, and eat lots of chips . . . Hand this one to all romance readers." -- School Library Journal, starred review
"This book made me fall in love with all things London -- the food, the music, the sights, the cute boy. Full of romance, friendships, and family drama, I was invested from page one. Adding London to my must see again immediately travel itinerary. Definitely take a chance on this book, you won't regret it." -- Kasie West, author of Sunkissed
"While Evie's relationship with Aiden is full of bubbly banter and romantic beats, the novel is deepened by the storyline in which Evie strives to be true to herself in the face of her father's disordered eating. A winsome romance tempered by an asuste exploration of family issues." -- Kirkus
"While this is a romance at its heart, Eulberg writes about eating disorders with sensitivity and hope and thoughtfully portrays the power of opening oneself up to others." -- Booklist
