Another Glass of Tea

A captivating story of love, loss, family, and friendship from debut author Katherine Ward.

Fiona, a teenager from Canada, embarks on the ultimate adventure - a year abroad in Turkey. Though leaving her loving family has her nerves on edge, she is immediately enveloped by the intoxicating sights and sounds of İstanbul. From the delicious food and incredible architecture, to a new group of best friends and a welcoming host family, Fiona starts to develop an uncanny sense of feeling . . . at home. It isn't long before she has one more reason to love this country and all it has to offer: the handsome and charismatic Metin.

A whirlwind romance catches them both off guard and with limited time together, Fiona's return to Canada ticks down in their minds and their hearts.

Fiona returns to her homeland and life brings her another love, a busy career and a bustling family, but after a devastating loss, Fiona questions whether she can ever be truly happy again. When memories to İstanbul beckon, she rediscovers the wonders of the city and enjoys the camaraderie of old friends, who have, themselves, grown to be strong women. And one evening, over a glass of tea, she begins to feel romance in the air.
