What if you almost missed the love of your life?
Nadia gets the 07.30 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 07.30 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.
Includes a bonus Q&A between Laura Jane Williams and Carrie Hope Fletcher
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.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
This is the sort of audiobook that’ll make you miss your bus stop. Laura Jane Williams has written a sweet, relatable and very funny romance that benefits from thoroughly charming narration by Carrie Hope Fletcher. Our would-be star-crossed lovers are Nadia and Daniel—bound together by their shared commute but kept apart by bad luck, circumstance and some very comedic near-misses. Williams has a terrific ability to paint wonderfully likeable characters, and you’ll be willing the two of them on as they stumble, stagger and slip towards true love.
Customer Reviews
I really wanted to enjoy this book, but struggled
Listening to this book I started off excited. I had great expectations of this being a fantastic book (great story idea) However I was unable to get into the storyline, difficult to keep listening and concentrate on characters. The start was a little clunky. I wasn’t sure why the same characters had repetitive chapters to keep the storyline flowing.
I think at 1 point 5 continuous chapters about the same character. I felt it was unnecessary.
On a plus side-; The ending was great. I had finally got to understand and workout who and what all the characters were. Storyline finally came together, with a great feel good factor made you not want to stop listening.
My advice keep plugging away. It is worth it.If you can follow and keep up.
A warm and beautiful love story
This book was more than just romance. It talked about male emotion, letting go of hurtful pasts and how things happen will happen if you believe it. A truly wonderful book that I would recommend to anyone that loves a great love story.
Truly fabulous!
Absolutely adored it! Finished it in 2 days and loved every second!
