'Jennifer E. Smith always manages to make you fall in love' 5* reader review Owen lives in the basement. Lucy lives on the 24th floor. But when the power goes out in the midst of a New York heatwave, they find themselves together for the first time: stuck in a lift between the 10th and 11th floors. As they await help, they start talking. The brief time they spend together leaves a mark. And as their lives take them to Edinburgh and San Francisco , to Prague and to Portland they can't shake the memory of the time they shared. Postcards cross the globe when they themselves can't, as Owen and Lucy experience the joy - and pain - of first love.

And as they make their separate journeys in search of home, they discover that sometimes it is a person rather than a place that anchors you most in the world. Praise for Jennifer E. Smith ' Utterly romantic' Jenny Han 'Jennifer E. Smith has a way of writing that makes falling in love as magical as it feels' 5* reader review ' A gorgeous reminder of the power of fate ' New York Times Book Review ' Completely magical' 5* reader review.
