Everything I Overheard

by Anonymous

Nell has always been better at living inside other people's love stories than her own. She's fine with this. She's a copy editor at a Bloomsbury publishing house — noticing things is literally her job. But when she overhears one half of a phone call at her regular coffee shop on Lamb's Conduit Street, she can't stop constructing the other half. Who is 'she'? What was already announced? And why does the man keep showing up everywhere, looking at her like she's the one who wandered into his story — not the other way around? A slow-burn romantic comedy about the difference between the story you imagine and the one you're actually brave enough to live.
