Book Launch: June Patrick — The Valencia Expat Club

Sometimes the life you didn't plan is the one you actually needed. Join us at Little Blue Pigeon Books on Monday, June 2nd for the launch celebration of The Valencia Expat Club — the sparkling debut novel from Colorado's own .

Dahlia Delaney's marriage has just imploded. Her friends took sides. Her entire San Francisco life now fits in a single suitcase. So she does the only thing that makes sense: she books a one-way flight to Valencia, Spain, chasing a blurry childhood memory of her abuela's garden and the faint hope of a fresh start. What she finds instead is a chaotic job at a quirky expat bar, a family she barely knows who embrace her like she's always belonged, and a brooding American bar owner who is frustratingly, inconveniently attractive.

Warm, funny, and utterly escapist, The Valencia Expat Club is for anyone who has ever dreamed of starting over somewhere with better wine. Fans of One Italian Summer and Eat, Pray, Love will feel right at home.

June Patrick writes witty, escapist stories set in swoony faraway places. A Northern California native, she now calls Colorado home — which means we get to claim this one as our own. We are thrilled to celebrate her new book right here on Larimer Square.

The evening will include a reading, conversation, and book signing. Copies of The Valencia Expat Club will be available for purchase. Free and open to all — come ready to be transported.
