Publisher Description
A joyful love story set against the backdrop of lockdown – perfect for fans of The Flatshare
Do you believe in love before first sight?
Lockdown is putting Sophia’s life on pause – just as she planned to put herself out there and meet someone. When the first clap for the keyworkers rings out around her courtyard, she’s moved to tears for all kinds of reasons.
Jack is used to living life to the fullest. He’s going stir-crazy after just days isolating. Until the night he hears a woman crying from the balcony under his. He strikes up a conversation with the stranger and puts a smile on her face.
Soon their balcony meetings are the highlight of Jack and Sophia’s days. But even as they grow closer together, they’re always kept apart.
Can they fall in love during a lockdown?

*Adorable Story*
Take lockdown and all it’s trials and restrictions, meet Jack a young Man living alone with kidney disease who is in the sheltered group trying to get on with life in isolation.
Meet Sophia she is a teacher who has changed careers due to being diagnosed with epilepsy and as her condition has remained good for some time she is able to work. She is currently teaching a mixed bunch of the children of key-workers
Out of her balcony during the clap for frontline workers she becomes overwhelmed by the sea of people on their balconies clapping and Jack who lives directly above her shouts down asking if she is ok. From then on their chats become a regular occurrence and Sophia is dropping food and essentials off for Jack and each time they miss seeing each other. So although they are communicating they still have not met, then their feelings grow, what will happen when they eventually come face to face? they have a few ups and downs can they get through them….. I absolutely loved it. Slightly cheesy but in a good way
