What an eye-catching book this is. It was an
impulsive buy because I’m not familiar with the author nor am I a fan of the
genre, but when I saw it I felt the need to read it. I’m happy to say that the
story was just as good.
The plot is quite straightforward. Hadley is
just about to board a plane to London to attend her dad’s wedding. She dreads
doing it because after her father left them she hasn’t been able to forgive him
or even come to terms with it. She hates her future stepmother even though she hasn’t
met her before, and she hasn’t seen her dad in over a year. But now she can’t
go back and she’s trapped in an airport waiting for her flight, getting more
and more anxious as the minutes go by. That’s
how she meets Oliver, a charming and cute guy just about her age, who’s also flying
to London and happens to be seated right next to her. What they don’t know is
that in a matter of 24 hours, and thanks to fate and chance, they will become
friends and much more.
