2000s: 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.
People rushing to work on the tube and trains in London. Guy meets girl and finds her attractive with coffee stains on her dress and wants to ask her out. He puts an advert in the paper to find her, in the section called Missed Connections where you can track down people you fancy on your commute.
A cute idea and with so many tube lines and stations in London, this book might just have you racing around London wishing for your own meet cute. There are lots of instances of missed connections, late arrivals and rushing along platforms to catch trains so it’s realistic from a London view point as people are always rushing around here and jumping on trains at the last minute.
