A Spring in South Langland - Romantic Novel by Barry Thomas

Hannah Ellis, a smart but roughhewn teenager from the backwater town of Cantwell, is sent by her Uncle Zackary to the more sophisticated city of Demeter, to get a good education and fulfill the potential that he sees in her. But instead of studying, Hannah involves herself in the intrigues of the social world at Kain High School and with multiple romances. After a lackluster academic beginning, Zackary threatens her with a return to Cantwell unless she improves her grades.

Aubrey Newman, a shy but aware teenager from Demeter, endures continuous embarrassments with girls and athletics, which make him a laughingstock at Kain despite his excellence in the classroom. He longs for a girlfriend that seems outside of his reach, and for coordination and competence so that he can be at least average at sports and not trip over himself. Hannah’s search for a tutor, and a way to stay in her new hometown, leads her to Aubrey – and an unlikely relationship.
