Two people. One desk. A million Zoom calls. What could go wrong
When Ada and Fraser find themselves freelancing from the same cafe together every day, they strike up a mutually beneficial friendship. Fraser saves her the best biscuits and Ada protects the best table when he's running late.
As they work side-by-side Ada can't help but notice how attractive Fraser is, and how well they get along. But then Ada signs up to an Agatha Christie fan fiction site and she starts chatting with a guy online. His interests are the same as hers, and the anonymity helps them both be more honest and open. As Ada's messages with the mystery man become deeper and more honest, she thinks she's falling for him.
Ada is torn between Fraser and Myster-E - but can you have real feelings for someone when you're virtual strangers
A modern You've Got Mail meets When Harry Met Sally.
Sam Canning has written a romance it's so easy to fall in love with. I adored every moment of Ada and Fraser's budding relationship - and her heart-to-hearts online with Myster-E. Ada is such a vibrant, brilliant character throughout. Funny, sweet, and full of warmth. * Beth Reekles, author of The Kissing Booth *
Delightful. An upbeat, fun-filled read about life, love and learning about yourself. * Gillian Harvey *
Warm, witty and wise: a story that reminds us that while we all love a mystery, life is a lot less complicated when we're honest. * Gillian Harvey *
