Über dieses E-Book

‘Joyful, romantic and life-affirming.’ Red Magazine

‘It had me totally gripped.’ Beth O’Leary, author of The Flatshare

‘A love story that is guaranteed to make you smile.’ Closer

What if you almost missed the love of your life?

Nadia gets the 7.30 train every morning without fail. Well, except if she oversleeps or wakes up at her friend Emma’s after too much wine.

Daniel really does get the 7.30 train every morning, which is easy because he hasn’t been able to sleep properly since his dad died.

One morning, Nadia’s eye catches sight of a post in the daily paper:

To the cute girl with the coffee stains on her dress. I’m the guy who’s always standing near the doors... Drink sometime?

So begins a not-quite-romance of near-misses, true love, and the power of the written word.

A #1 ebook bestseller, this wonderful will-they-won’t-they romance is perfect
for those who loved Beth O’Leary’s The Flatshare and Mhairi McFarlane’s If I Never Met You.

4,5 Stars The synopsis says: "So begins a not-quite-romance of near misses, true love, and the power of the written word." And that captures it brilliantly. The book is very romantic as such, but since our two protagonists several times nearly miss each other they cannot really start with the romance in 'real life' but have to fall back to communicating via a newspaper (reminded me of "Desperately Seeking Susan", this movie from the 80's when Madonna was still young & cool) containing a section about "Missed Connections". I loved the storyline, I loved the characters, I especially loved the snappy witty dialogues. And I also found it a very nice reversal of roles that here it is the man who initiates the whole game, who is the driving force into meeting each other and who even consults a Dating Guide. Normally in those chick-Lit books this is all done by the female lead. Yay to equal rights! The near misses honestly get a bit frustrating after a while, and with that I mean not only for Daniel and Nadia but also for the reader. But that is also kind of the charm of the story, and I can really picture this being made into a movie. It would work really well.
