Two strangers. Two chance meetings. One extraordinary love story…
Nell and Charlie feel a spark when they meet by chance in a cafe. But they don’t trade numbers, or surnames, so there’s no way they’ll meet again.


But the next day, Nell’s phone rings at work. Somehow, impossibly, Charlie is on the other end. And he needs her help.


Nell is about to save a life, fall in love … and risk everything for a perfect stranger.



Tender, thought-provoking and joyful, Charlie and Nell’s unique love story will capture your heart and give you hope. Perfect for fans of The Sight of You by Holly Miller and Love Rosie by Cecelia Ahern.
