Resumen del Editor

“I love a good will-they-or-won’t-they romance, and this one turned out to be unexpectedly deep, tackling really important issues that impact so many.”—New York Times bestselling author Emily Giffin on the TODAY show

Is it possible to love someone you've never met? A young woman finds out in this sweeping will-they-or-won't-they love story that begins with a chance wrong number dial. . . .

When Hannah picks up a call from an unknown number, she thinks nothing of it—it’s just an easygoing American named Davey who misdialed her while calling into a job interview. And when Hannah wishes him luck after clearing up the confusion, she never actually expects to hear from him again.

Then she gets a text saying he got the job and he’ll be moving to London, and she can’t help but smile. Soon their texts become phone calls that turn into video calls, and their friendship becomes a relationship they can’t wait to start in earnest once Davey lands in London in a month’s time.

But when Hannah goes to meet him at the airport, Davey isn’t there—and the reason why changes both of their lives in an instant. With their future together suddenly so uncertain, they don’t know what to do but try to move on from each other.

Though their chance at love seems lost forever, neither is never far from the other’s thoughts. Will fate intervene once more to bring the two together, or will Davey always be the man that Hannah never met?

The sweetest love story

Love, love, love this incredible story of perseverance, sacrifice & true love. A tender reminder that you really never know what’s in store for you!!!

A little slow to start but then hang on!

I stopped and started this book a couple of times, because the beginning seemed a little slow and a little predictable. Little did I know that the beginning didn’t dictate what what would happen in the rest of the book! Once I started listening further, I couldn’t stop!

I couldn't put this down.

I really enjoyed this story. Some romances are ridiculous but this one kept me interested.
Narrators were very good as well.

Great stories

First time to read one of her books. I enjoyed all the characters. Want it to keep reading.

A good listen!

Great narrator. Good story with depth and great characters, an easy listen that I would re listen to again!

Touching

This story keeps you guessing whether or not they will actually meet. I listened to the end to find out. Read or listen to it,
No spoiler alert here. I really enjoyed this book, hope you will too!

Unique Love Story

Man, I don't even know where to begin to review this. It's hard to do without spilling major spoilers. First off, I'm pretty sure I mostly loved this. Yes, I loved it. But parts of it were difficult to read. I wanted to alternatingly reach through the book and slap / shake the characters and hug them really tight. I was annoyed with them often. In fact, I feel like it took a bit too long to get to the end. But what would you cut? I can't think of anything that could be left out. So much was really far-fetched and unlikely to ever actually happen IRL, but {shrug}. The writing was great and I loved the character development. Even all the little side characters were unique and had just enough personality to be memorable. I'd love to revisit them. Fairly big TW with this one, in that there's a big battle with cancer and the emotion and turning upside down of life that entails. It was handled with care, I thought, but I've been really fortunate to not have to go through that myself, so I'm not a good judge. Overall, I'd highly recommend this to any fan of women's fiction. I'd probably categorize this as a rom-com with a more serious tone. Strong 4.5 stars for me.
