    About this ebook

    I could hear someone singing softly on the next aisle from where I was stood. He seemed to only be singing the verses to the song – as if he wanted someone to chime in with the chorus... well, I was happy to oblige. I waited until he came to the end of the next line and then I started to softly sing the chorus. I stopped and waited to see if he’d continue the song.
    He did. This was kind of fun. I pulled out a book and peered through the bookshelf. My eyes almost popped out of my head when I found myself eye-to-eye with Jules....
    Mum always reckoned that if she could stop singing and someone carried on the song – they were totally in tune with you – like you had a connection... and I was pretty damned sure I had a connection with Jules...
    Making him see that while he was still nursing a broken heart was gonna be a challenge... I could see that but I was also willing to give it a go...
    I still wasn’t sure if I was in love with Jules – or in love with the idea of being in love with Jules – and I guess I was never gonna find out unless I took the bull by the horns and asked him out.
    “Hi,” I said, “What are you doing in here?”
    He raised an eyebrow, “Why shouldn’t I be in here?’ he asked, “I like poetry.”
    It was my turn to raise an eyebrow, “Poetry?”
    He nodded, “Why, what’s on your side?”
    I looked at the shelves. I hadn’t really been taking much notice – I’d followed the sound of his beautiful voice if I was gonna be completely honest. “Motorcross and uh, BMXing.”
    He nodded, “Wow.” He said, “You’re into that?”
    I swallowed hard and shook my head, “Not really.” I admitted with my heart slamming against my ribs painfully, “But I’m into you.”
