    About this ebook

    One chilly night in London, Lina decides to stop wasting time with Tom and suddenly realises that she's found Jake. Jake is funny, warm and gives her goosebumps, but she never realised that he felt the same way about her. It's a rollercoaster ride of a short story that takes the reader from the lows of the heroine realising she'll never be good enough for the man she's seeing and notices that she's already sending shivers up the spine of a close colleague.
