Story
Tiffy Moore needs a cheap flat, and fast. Leon Twomey works nights and needs cash. Their friends think they're crazy, but it's the perfect solution: Leon occupies the one-bed flat while Tiffy's at work in the day, and she has the run of the place the rest of the time. But with obsessive ex-boyfriends, demanding clients at work, wrongly imprisoned brothers and, of course, the fact that they still haven't met yet, they're about to discover that if you want the perfect home you need to throw the rule book out the window....

Story
After eight years together, Lil Bailey thought she’d already found ‘the one’ - that is, until he dumped her for a blonde 20-something colleague. So she does what any self-respecting singleton would do: swipes right, puts on her best bra and finds herself on a first date with a handsome mountaineer called Max. What’s the worst that can happen? Well it’s pretty bad actually. First Max ghosts her and then, after weeing on a stick (but mostly her hands), a few weeks later Lil discovers she’s pregnant.

Story
Lucy Hutton and Joshua Templeman sit across from each other every day...and they hate each other. Not dislike. Not begrudgingly tolerate. Hate. Lucy can't understand Joshua's joyless, uptight approach to his job and refusal to smile. Joshua is clearly baffled by Lucy's overly bright clothes, quirkiness, and desire to be liked. Now they're up for the same promotion, and Lucy, usually a determined people pleaser, has had enough: it's time to take him down. But as the tension between Lucy and Joshua reaches its boiling point, it's clear that the real battle has only just begun....

Story
Polly Spencer is fine. She’s single, turning 30 and managed to have sex only twice last year (both times with a Swedish banker called Fred), but seriously, she’s fine. Even if she’s still stuck at Posh! magazine writing about royal babies and the chances of finding a plus one to her best friend’s summer wedding are looking worryingly slim. But it’s a New Year, a new leaf and all that. Polly’s determined that over the next 365 days she’ll remember to shave her legs, drink less wine and generally get her s--t together.

Story
You always remember your first love. Don't you? It began with four words. "I love your laugh." But that was 12 years ago. It really began the day Georgina was fired from The Worst Restaurant in Sheffield (TripAdvisor) and found The Worst Boyfriend in the World (Georgina's best friends) in bed with someone else. So when her new boss, Lucas McCarthy, turns out to be the boy who wrote those words to her all that time ago, it feels like the start of something. The only problem? He doesn't seem to remember Georgina at all.

Her friends are all coupling up and settling down, while she's still working as a temp, trying (and failing) not to shag her terrible ex, getting thrown out of clubs, and accidentally sexting her boss.... She decides to throw caution to the wind and jets off on a round-the-world adventure to #FindTheFun and find herself. Of course, she's no more likely to find the answer to true happiness on the beach in Thailand than she is at the electric beach in Tooting, but at least in Thailand there's paddleboard yoga.

Summary
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 wonderfully funny will-they-won’t-they romance told with real emotional honesty, perfect for those who loved Sally Thorne’s 99% Mine and Helena Hunting’s Meet Cute.
Critic reviews
"A fresh, smart, modern rom com. This is romance seen through the wry eyes of a cynic, and that's what makes it so special – and, ultimately, so uplifting. It had me totally gripped." (Beth O’Leary)
"The joyful, romantic and life-affirming love story you need in your suitcase this summer!" (Red Magazine)
"Tender, energetic and authentic...Such a current love story, but so timeless too. I adored Nadia and Daniel." (Daisy Buchanan)

Wholefully wonderful
Of all of the wonderful things I can say about this book, the first is that it is so whole. Both characters have lives that are lovely and filled with good jobs and good friends - but they still desire to have a romantic partner. And, if this feeling is not relatable enough for all my fellow twenty somethings, because many of their friends are already married they both struggle with doubt and insecurities.
These insecurities are gorgeously written, and mirror my own. They do not ring of self pitty and moping, but rather of what insecurities are. A way for your brain to make sense of the contrast between all you have to offer and you’re current relationship status.
I could continue but my point is clear- you won’t regret listening to Nadia and Daniels story. The writing, performance and story all come together so whole. None of it feeling cheap or superficial. All of it altogether wonderful.

Relatable and cute
For me the storyline was starting out a little slow but after it got going the story got good. The conversations between friend and the internal dialogues were really on point with sentiments felt my millennials today. Loved the feminist vibes. Great rom-com, easy listen.

Feel-good and smart sweet romance
It's so hard to find a romantic story that is not cliché or too corny, so this book felt like jackpot. The writing is great as well as the narrators. The story is also current and brings up feminist topics that are currently popular without leaning too heavily on it. Yet the romance is well... romantic, pushing the falling-in-love fantasy right up to where it should as far as rom-coms go. Hoping that Laura Jane Williams continues to write fiction.

Trying for PC
Tried so hard to be PC that characters became flat and fake. Male characters were all "feminists", or what this generation thinks is feminist. Not holding women to the same standards that you would hold a man... that seems really off kilter, though.
Female was using other characters for selfish needs. Male counterpart was neutered and really, really unattractive for anything other than a girlfriend.
Just cut this off with an hour to go on a car trip. Sat in silence, bc I decided I didn't care what happened to any of these characters. Shallow book.
