Love in the City by the Sea cover

Tess Barton navigates a marathon in Barcelona, discovering love and confronting her dreams in Love in the City by the Sea.

In Love in the City by the Sea, Tess Barton finds herself trapped in a monotonous routine, juggling three jobs just to make ends meet. Once passionate about her dream of becoming an artist, she now struggles to find time for herself, let alone pursue her aspirations. When her sister, Emma, signs her up for the Barcelona marathon in memory of their late sibling, Tess is thrust into an unexpected adventure that challenges her limits and perceptions.

As Tess prepares for the marathon, she faces a setback when Emma cannot join her, leaving her to navigate the vibrant city of Barcelona alone. However, a chance meeting with the charming Roberto in a local tapas bar changes everything. With his support, the daunting marathon transforms from a terrifying ordeal into a journey of self-discovery. Tess begins to see the city through new eyes, and her fears start to fade as she embraces the experience.

Throughout her time in Barcelona, Tess learns that crossing the finish line is just the beginning. The marathon becomes a metaphor for her life, as she confronts the dreams she has been neglecting. As she races towards the finish, Tess must decide if she can reclaim her passion and find her way back to the artist she once aspired to be. Love in the City by the Sea is a heartwarming tale about love, loss, and the courage to chase one's dreams amidst life's challenges.
