Somewhere to review books I'm reading without giving away any spoilers!

Fun Romance with coffee and biscuits! – Virtual Strangers by Sam Canning

My Review:

Revelations had Ada leaving her job and homeward bound
Setting herself up as a publicist a place she's found
Where there's a space in which to work in a café,
With drinks and biscuits and company every day.

She's tried all the tables and found the best
Now she likes this one and hates the rest.
So when Fraser is sat at it before her one day
She's not best pleased and has much to say.

After this unhappy beginning she eventually finds
Fraser is actually caring, fun and kind. 
They agree to share and get along well
Helping each other and secrets to tell.

Ada is has a virtual friend, too,
Texting each other and chatting is what they do.
He's Myster-E and things from their pasts they share,
Maybe in reality for each other they'd care?

With friendship and blind dates, and rogue clients, too,
Life isn't quiet, there's so much to get through.
But which friendships will last and which will end?
With whom should she endeavour more time to spend?

A fun read full of drama and dilemmas, too,
As Ada tries to decide just what she should do.
For my complementary copy, I say thank you,
As I share with you this, my honest review.

Synopsis:

Two people. One desk. A million Zoom calls. What could go wrong?

When Ada and Fraser find themselves freelancing from the same café together every day, they strike up a mutually beneficial friendship. Fraser saves her the best biscuits and Ada protects the best table when he’s running late.

As they work side-by-side Ada can’t help but notice how attractive Fraser is, and how well they get along. But then Ada signs up to an Agatha Christie fan fiction site and she starts chatting with a guy online. His interests are the same as hers, and the anonymity helps them both be more honest and open. As Ada’s messages with the mystery man become deeper and more honest, she thinks she’s falling for him.

Ada is torn between Fraser and Myster-E – but can you have real feelings for someone when you’re virtual strangers?
A modern You’ve Got Mail meets When Harry Met Sally.
