The Man I Never Met

Content warnings: cancer, ghosting, breakups

A wrong number changes Hannah's life.

Davey calls Hannah thinking he's beginning a job interview at a London architectural firm. Hannah tells Davey he misdialed, but asks him to tell her how the interview went. They text, then call, then FaceTime and begin to develop feelings for each other. They can't wait to meet when Davey moves to London for his new job.

Although the story has an ideal beginning, the rug is pulled out from under our characters and they must navigate illness, other relationships, and career changes separately. But a connection as strong as theirs doesn't just go away...

Recommended for readers of contemporary romance and women's fiction.

Elle Cook also writes historical fiction novels as Lorna Cook. Her former careers were in journalism and PR.
