Descripción editorial
An accidental phone swap finds a celebrity heartthrob falling in love with an ordinary girl. But falling in love in private is not as simple as falling in love in reality. Especially if the world is somehow still watching...
When never-been-in-love, ambitious scientist Allie, and romantic, golden retriever movie star Milo switch seats on a plane, they find themselves unintentionally stuck with the other’s phone. Although now an ocean apart, they agree to help each other—just until they can meet to swap them back. As they trade back and forth on each other’s phones, Allie and Milo can’t help but notice there’s more to their connection than just messages and digital practicalities. Something real.
But as the clock ticks down to them finally meeting, Allie and Milo discover that their meet-cute may not be as simple as their intimate messages and private video calls.
As two very different worlds collide, is the chance for true love even possible? After all, you can’t escape reality forever. Right?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
When British scientist Allie Lake and up-and-coming American actor Milo Ford accidentally end up with each other's phones after a transatlantic seat shift, the mix-up sets the stage for romance in this cute contemporary from Louis (Better Left Unsent). The pair share banter-filled and increasingly intimate text exchanges as they wait until they can meet in person to exchange phones. With the movie Milo's filming in Romania wrapping soon, their IRL meeting is drawing closer when both their messages and Allie's private diary are leaked and go viral online. Convinced that Milo is the culprit, Allie shuts down further communication completely—until two years later, when Milo and a filmmaker friend arrive at her new workplace, an arctic research station, to film a documentary. Their old flame immediately reignites, but for a relationship to work, trust must be rebuilt. Louis makes the road to happily ever after wonderfully entertaining, complete with snappy prose and characters it's easy to emotionally invest in. This is a charmer.
