A misdialed call, text messages, and video calls connect two people – Hannah in London and Davey from Texas in ways they never imagined. Davey misdialed Hannah while calling in for a job interview in London. They have a brief chat and Hannah believes that will be it, but then Davey texts her to inform her that he got the job! Hannah is happy for Davey; he is happy, and they decide to keep in contact.
Hannah agrees to meet Davey at the airport when he moves to London. She made a big sign and can’t wait to meet him in person. She waits and she waits, and she waits. Concerned she texts him but gets no response. His plane has landed but he is nowhere in sight. There is a life changing reason why he wasn’t there.
This was a wonderful, sad, hopeful, and lovely book. I enjoyed both main characters and their exchanges together. I loved how the author had two strangers connecting without meeting in person. I also enjoyed how the *oops* wrong number changed their lives. Most people would have answered and said, “sorry, wrong number” and moved on. Not Hannah!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book about connections. I loved how in the beginning, one small thing (calling the wrong number) changed both of their lives. How making a simple mistake can have such a BIG outcome. The author also deals with a sensitive subject in this book with grace.
A brilliant book which pulled on my heartstrings and left me smiling.
